Question:
What is the ruling on double-barelled nicknames. Where the wife still keeps her father's name, but she also combines her husband's name with it. So that she has both her father' and husband's names together? Jazakom Allaho Khairan

Al-Salâm `Alaykum wa Rahmah Allah waBarakâtuh.
The woman has to keep the name of her father and not her husband. In the hadîth, there is a severe warning if a person attributes himself to other than his father.
Allah says in the Qur’ân: “Call them by the names of their fathers: that is more just in the sight of Allah, but if ye know not their father’s names, (then they are) your brothers in faith, or your friends but there is no blame on you if ye make a mistake therein: (what counts is) the intention of your hearts.”
Due to the seriousness of the matter, if a woman has her legal documentation like her passport in her husband’s family name, then she has to change her official documents back to her father’s family name if she can, even if she in her daily practice abides by the legal ruling and people call her by her father’s name and not her husband’s.
