Abd al-Aziz (,
DMG:
ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz), frequently also transliterated
Abdul Aziz, is a male Muslim given name and in modern usage, surname. It is built from the Arabic words
Abd,
al- and
Aziz. The name means "servant of the Almighty",
Al-Azīz being one of the
names of God in the Qur'an, which give rise to the
Muslim theophoric names.
