The Shaykh : Yes, yes, it is permissible for a son to mention his father or mother by their specific names, and it is even permissible to call them by those names, unless the custom is that doing so constitutes an insult, in which case one should not call them by their names. Do customs differ? Yes, customs differ. Some people say, “If my son called me by my name, I would kill him,” while for others it is all the same, whether he says “O my father” or “O Umar.” Yes, “O Khalid.”
