Abd al-Sattar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Abdus Sattar)

ʻAbd al-Sattār (ALA-LC romanization of Arabic: عبد الستّار) is an Arabic Muslim male given name, built on the Arabic words ʻabd and al-Sattār. The name means "servant of the Veiler (of sins)".[1][2][dubious discuss]

Because the letter s is a sun letter, the letter l of the al- is usually assimilated to it. Thus although the name is written with letters corresponding to Abd al-Sattar, the usual pronunciation corresponds to Abd as-Sattar. Alternative transliterations include Abdus Sattar, Abdul Sattar, Abdel Sattar and others, all subject to variant spacing and hyphenation.
