Mehboobul Haq is Arabic in Origin.

Mehboobul Haq is a Persianate-Urdu rendering of the Arabic compound Mahbūb al-Ḥaqq: mahbūb means “beloved,” while al-Ḥaqq, “the Truth,” is a Qur’anic epithet of God. In South Asian Muslim naming, the connector ul (from Arabic al) links them, yielding the devotional sense “beloved of the Truth (God)” - essentially, “beloved of God.”

Used across Urdu- and Bengali-speaking communities since the late Mughal era, the name often appears as a compound given name or as Mehboob/Mahboob with the honorific ul Haq attached. Spelling and spacing vary: Mehboob‑ul‑Haq, Mahboob ul Haq, Mahbub ul Haq, Mahbub al‑Haqq, and Mahbubul Haque (Bengali/colonial -e). Short forms include Mehboob/Mahbub, while Haq/Haque can function as a family name. A notable bearer is the Pakistani economist Mahbub ul Haq (1934–1998), associated with the Human Development Index, which helped popularize the transliteration.
