The obligation to change names that contradict the Shari'ah

Question: If a person takes a name and it is discovered that it is not a Shari'ah-compliant name, what is your guidance?

Answer: It is obligatory to change it. For example, if someone named himself 'Abd al-Husayn, 'Abd al-Nabi, or 'Abd al-Ka'bah, and then he learns that servitude is not permissible for anyone other than Allah, and that no one should be worshipped other than Allah, Mighty and Majestic, then he must change the name. Names like 'Abdullah, 'Abd al-Rahman, and 'Abd al-Malik are permissible. He should change a name like 'Abd al-Nabi or 'Abd al-Ka'bah to 'Abdullah, 'Abd al-Rahman, Muhammad, Ahmad, Salih, or similar Shari'ah-compliant names. This is what is obligatory. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) changed many names.
As for a name belonging to a father, if the father is alive, he should be informed so that he can change his name. However, if the father is dead, there is no need to change it, and it remains as it is. This is because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did not change the name of 'Abd al-Muttalib, nor did he change the names of others who were named after entities other than Allah, such as 'Abd Manaf, because they were known by those names.
