There is some hadith which says that on the day of judgement all human beings will be raised and remembered by the name of their mother and NOT by the name of the father.
What is the reason and logic behind this hadith?

If a child is born out of wedlock, they take the mother's name.
Re: Mother's name vs father's name on the day of judgement
Because mother is always certain, but father is never 100 % certain ?
Re: Mother's name vs father's name on the day of judgement
nstar i heard that as well but then a religious student told me that is not true. they will be called by father's name. and i havent myself come across any hadith to support either view.

Jokes aside folks I was hoping some serious answers on this issue. Please keep trying.
Re: Mother's name vs father's name on the day of judgement
well you can be the judge of that. where you read this hadith? and how authentic was the source?first you establish whether in fact there is a hadith then make an attempt to understand the reasoning or logic behind it.
Re: Mother’s name vs father’s name on the day of judgement
Q.) On the Day of Judgment (Qiyamat), will a person be called by his father’s name or his mother’s name? [Muhammad Amir Jamil]
A.) Imam Bukhari (RA) has included the following subtitle in his Sahih, ‘Chapter on the fact that the people will be called by their father’s name’. Under this chapter, he has recorded the narration of Sayyiduna ibn Umar, Radi-Allahu anhu, that Rasulullah Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam said, 'Verily, a banner will be raised for the treacherous person on the day of Qiyamat and it will be proclaimed, ‘This is the treachery of so and so, the son of so and so.’ (Sahih Bukhari Hadith6177) (Note that the masculine tense was used for the parent of this ‘so and so’.)
Imam Khattaabi, Imaam ibn Battaal, Haafiz ibnul Qayyim, Haafiz ibn Hajar, Allaamah 'Ainiy and Haafiz Qastalaaniy (RA) have all stated that this Hadith is a proof in argument against those who claim that people will be called by their mother’s name. (Refer Sharah ibn Battaal vol.9 pg.335, Tazab ibnul Qayyim li Abi Dawud vol.7 pg.250, Fathul Baari vol.10 pg.689, Umdatul Qaari vol.22 pg.201 and Irshaadus saari vol.13 pg.184). The reason for this is that Rasulullah Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam said that it will be proclaimed, ‘This is . of so and so, the son of so and so - masculine (fulaan ibn fulaan)’ and Rasulullah Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam did not say, ‘fulaan ibn Fulaanah’ (which means 'so and so, the son of so and so - feminine)
Moreover, the argument of those who choose the contrary (i.e. people will be called out by their mother’s name) is based on narrations which have been classified as extremely weak by Haafiz ibn Hajar and others (refer Fathul Baari vol.10 pg.289 and Irshaadus saari vol.13 pg.184). Haafiz ibnul Qayyim (RA) states that the Ulama have consensus on the fact that this hadith is weak (Tahzib of Ibn Qayyim vol.7 pg.250)
Hafiz Ibn Qayyim (RA) further states, ‘This hadith is unsuitable for argument and more over it is in contradiction with a Sahih (authentic) narration.’ (Ibid)
After contemplating the above, it would be understood that the stronger and more preferred view is that on the day of Judgment, a person will be called out by the name of his father and not his mother, as it is substantiated by the hadith of Sahih Bukhari and Sunan Abu Dawud.
Re: Mother's name vs father's name on the day of judgement
exactly what i was told just didnt have the source on my hands right now . jazak playa
Re: Mother’s name vs father’s name on the day of judgement
Thank you and if this happens to be the true and sacred hadith then there is no point thinking about the reasons in support of mother’s name. But still for argument sake if the other hadith is also authentic then what is the logic behind that? In Islam everything is based on reason and logic and it is upto us to go and seek that truthful knowledge.

What does this have any effect on our good deads? Does it change ANYTHING? We KNOW that the HADITH is RIGHT because it is sahih. That's it, if the Ulema come across anything, inshAllah they will let us know....

Trying to get to the reasoning on both sides of the argument. Ofcourse it has nothing to do with deeds' thats a totally different area.
Re: Mother's name vs father's name on the day of judgement
If every one to be called by father name, then how Hazrat Essa (AS) would be called?
As in Quran he is tha only Prophet for whom "ibn" is used, i.e. Essa Ibn-e-Maryam.
i think from here it is taken that on the judgement day, every one will be called by mother name.
Allah Knows the best
Re: Mother's name vs father's name on the day of judgement

Not the mothers on Jerry Springer show. There was one there for the fourth time with a different guy for DNA testing and it still didn't work. She had to go back and think hard about some other guy and some different encounter. In most cases you are right mother would have some idea about the paternity but what about those exceptional cases, afterall everyone is going to be called on the day of judgement.
Re: Mother’s name vs father’s name on the day of judgement
perhaps a little attention as to who is calling might answer that.
Re: Mother's name vs father's name on the day of judgement
Bhaaion te Behnon ... does it matter. You'll be judged according to your deeds. So prepare for that than rather waste time on these kind of things.
