'Abd al-Rahim
ʻAbd al-Raḥīm (ALA-LC romanization of Arabic : عبد الرحيم ) is a male Muslim given name, and in modern usage, surname. It is built from the Arabic words ʻabd , al-Raḥīm , one of the names of God in the Qur'an , which give rise to the Muslim theophoric names .[ 1] [ 2]
Because the letter r is a sun letter , the letter l of the al- is assimilated to it. Thus, although the name is written in Arabic with letters corresponding to Abd al-Rahim , the standard pronunciation corresponds to Abd ar-Rahim . Alternative transliterations include Abdel Raheem , Abdur Raheem , Abdul Rahiem and other regional linguistic variations, and subject to variant spacing or hyphenation.
