On a day of judgement a person will be called by his father's name!

here is a reference!

[quote]
Imam Bukhari (RA) has included the following subtitle in his Sahih, 'Chapter on the fact that the people will be called by their fathers'. Under this chapter, he has recorded the narration of Sayyiduna ibn Umar (Radhiallaahu Anhu) that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, 'Verily, a banner will be raised for the treacherous person on the day of Qiyaamat 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 mothers. (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 (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said that it will be proclaimed, 'This is . of so and so, the son of so and so - masculine (fulaan ibn fulaan)' and Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) 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 mothers) 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 ibnul Qayyim vol.7 pg.250)

Hafiz ibnul 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 Qiyaamat, 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.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best

I haven't changed my name and neither do I intend to.. I love my husband;s last name but still I am more comfortable with my dad's last name! personal choice I guess.. in fact my mom kept her maiden name and us sisters took our dad's last name so probably that's how it will be for our kids as well!

Re: Name change post-marriage

I will keep my last name as my middle name for a 'new' last name. blush

I don't think Desies were behind it. Grils of other nationalities as well change their last name.
