Abdul Fattah is an Arabic theophoric male name formed from ʿAbd al- (“servant of the”) and al‑Fattāḥ (الفَتّاح), one of the 99 Names of God meaning “the Opener,” “Supreme Judge,” or “Granter of victory.” As a compound it signifies “servant of the Opener,” expressing devotion and hope for divine resolution and success. The classical form is ʿAbd al‑Fattāḥ; “Abdul” is a common Anglicized linking of ʿAbd + al‑.

Used across the Arabic‑speaking world and wider Muslim communities, the name appears in many spellings: Abd al‑Fattah, Abdel Fattah, Abdul‑Fattah, Abdulfattah; Turkish Abdülfettah; South Asian Abdul Fatah/Fateh; North African Abdelfettah. It functions as a full given name or as the first element in longer personal names. Notable bearers include Egypt’s Abdel Fattah el‑Sisi and Syrian‑American Abdulfattah Jandali. Related forms pair ʿAbd with other Divine Names (e.g., Abdul Rahman, Abdul Aziz), following the same devotional pattern.
