Meaning and origin of Abdul-Muntaqim
Abdul-Muntaqim rests on al-Muntaqim, a divine name from the classical list of ninety-nine that describes God bringing just retribution on those who do wrong. It speaks of divine justice, not of human revenge, and scholars are careful to draw that line. Even so, it is seldom given to children. Parents generally lean towards names that speak of God's mercy and compassion instead, which are far more widely used.

It derives from a recognised divine name, recalling God as 'Exalted in Might, Owner of Retribution' (Quran 3:4), but it is rarely given, and names such as Abdul-Rahman or Abdul-Raheem are much more common.
