Generally, scholars discourage using Allah’s Names with the definite Arabic article ‘Al-‘ (meaning ‘the’) as a standalone personal name — for example, ‘Ar-Rahman’ or ‘Al-Aziz’ — because in this grammatical form, the name refers exclusively and absolutely to Allah’s unique divine attribute, and applying it directly to a human can blur the line of Tawheed (Allah’s oneness). The straightforward and universally accepted solution is to prefix ‘Abd’ (servant), turning it into Abdur-Rahman or Abdul-Aziz — names that beautifully express devotion to Allah’s attribute rather than claiming to possess it. This is one of the more nuanced areas of Islamic naming, so consulting a knowledgeable scholar for specific compound names is always encouraged.
