Females changing their surname! Sisters please do not change your surname to your husbands when you get married. You belong to your fathers lineage and have nothing to do with your husbands lineage. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: Allaah has cursed the one who claims to belong to someone other than his father. (Reported by Imaam Ahmad and others). The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: Whoever claims knowingly to belong to someone other than his father will be denied Paradise. (Reported by al-Bukhaari and Muslim, Fath, no. 3982). He also said: Whoever claims to belong to someone other than his father, will be cursed by Allaah, the angels and all the people, and Allaah will not accept any deeds or excuses from him on the Day of Resurrection. (Reported by Muslim, may Allaah have mercy on him, in his Saheeh, no. 2433). Narrated from Abu Dharr, who heard the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) say: There is no one who knowingly calls himself after someone other than his father, but he is guilty of Kufr (Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 3371; Muslim, 61).
