Abdul Mannan (Arabic: ′abdu ʾl-mannān عَبْدُ ٱلمَنَّان) is a Muslim male given name and, in modern usage, surname. It is built from the Arabic words Abd, al- meaning "servant" and Mannan, "Benefactor, the Giver of All Good/ Benefits". The full name means "servant of the Benevolent/ Benefactor", "servant of the Giver of All Good/ Benefits", and is a Muslim theophoric name.[1][2]

The letter a of the al- is unstressed, and can be transliterated by almost any vowel. The second part may appear as Mannan, Manan, or relating to Allah [God] – "Al-Mannan ٱلمَنَّان". The whole name is subject to variable spacing and hyphenation.
