Abdullaev

Abdullaev is a common surname of Turkic origin, prevalent among various ethnic groups in Central Asia, particularly Uzbeks, Tajiks, and others influenced by the region's historical and cultural context. It is derived from the Arabic given name "Abdullah," meaning "servant of Allah (God)." The suffix "-ev" is a common patronymic suffix in many Slavic and Turkic languages, indicating "son of" or "descendant of." Thus, Abdullaev literally translates to "son of Abdullah" or "descendant of Abdullah."

The surname Abdullaev, and its variations, is widespread throughout post-Soviet states with significant Muslim populations, reflecting the historical influence of Islam in these regions. Variations in spelling may occur due to transliteration differences from Cyrillic alphabets or regional dialects. Individuals bearing this surname can be found in diverse fields, including academia, politics, the arts, and sciences.
