"Our Lord, do not let our hearts deviate after You have guided us, and grant us from Yourself mercy. Indeed, You are the Bestower" (3:8). The Prophet ﷺ said, in a hadith reported by Abu Dawud and Ibn Mājah: "The most beloved of names to Allah are ʿAbdullāh and ʿAbd ar-Raḥmān", and the classical scholars extended that love to every name of the form ʿAbd-X where X is one of the asmāʾ al-ḥusnā. The romanizations vary: Abdelouahed is the Maghrebi (North African) form, while Abdul Wahhab predominates in the Arab East and South Asia.
