Abdulsalam Gambo Mubarak
Abd al-Salam ( ar, عبد السلام) is a male Muslim honorific or given name, built on the Arabic words '' Abd'', ''al-'' and '' Salam''. The name means "servant of the All-peaceable", ''as-Salam'' being one of the names of God in the Qur'an, which give rise to the Muslim theophoric names.
