In his saying: (This is the deception of so-and-so, son of so-and-so), is there any improvement of the name?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In his saying:
This is the betrayal (perfidy) of so-and-so, the son of so-and-so. هذه غدرة فلان بن فلان
Sahih al-Bukhari 6177
is there any improvement of the name?

The Shaykh : It is, in any case, an improvement of the name. There is no doubt that it is better, and the names most beloved to Allah are 'Abd Allah and 'Abd al-Rahman. But in this is a refutation of the claim of those who say that people will be called by their mothers' names on the Day of Resurrection, because the hadith is explicit:
it would be said: Here is the perfidy of so and so. يقال هذه غدرة فلان ابن فلان
Sahih Muslim 1736a
, and it did not say "son of so-and-so (female)."
