[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Arabic عَبْد (ʕabd, “servant [of]”) ال (al-, “the”).
Pronunciation
[edit]Proper noun
[edit]Abdul
- A male given name from Arabic used by Muslims.
Usage notes
[edit]This is not based on a name used independently in Arabic, but a transliteration of Arabic for "servant of the", to be followed by one of the 99 names, or epithets, of Allah; e.g., Abdullatif. Both the epithet Latif ('the All-gentle') and the whole name Abdullatif ('servant of the All-gentle') are given to Muslim men. Women receive the feminine form of one of God’s epithets, such as Latifa. Abdul is not the same name as Abdullah.
