INDEX
Proper names are indexed alphabetically according to the commonly used element in the names, and where they are prefixed with ad, adh, al, an, ar, as, ash, bin, or ibn these words remain as prefixes but are ignored for purposes of alphabetization. Thus ibn Hamza is indexed under H.
Names beginning with Abu and Umm are indexed under A and U respectively.
