Name changing after marriage

Re: Name changing after marriage

I always grew up believing that names shouldn’t be changed after marriage, that is until now. Recently someone said the reference in the Quran regarding a name change applies to a ‘man’ and it’s in reference to people who changed their last names for the purposes of obtaining wealth and power, so the verse states that any man who changes his name to not of his father … will be punished.

Also, I thought at Arafat everyone would be called by their mother’s name, because one man among (PCG should know who!) did not have a father.

As per my knowledge, everyone will be called by father’s name.

This is quite authentic Hadith
*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 Hadith 6177) (Note that the masculine tense was used for the parent of this ‘so and so’.)

*There is another Hadit which is not authentic (weak)
*people will be called by their mother’s name so that children that were born by adulterous acts will not be made public.

*Allah behter janta hai.
