Abdul-Qadir Gilani
Usually, in Muslim majority cultures, animals have names (one animal may be given several names), which are often interchangeable with names of people. Muslim names or titles like "asad" and "ghadanfar" (Arabic for lion), "shir" and "arslan" (Persian and Turkish for lion, respectively) and "fahad" (Could mean either a cheetah or leopard, however “"nimr"” is more common for the latter) are common in the Muslim world. Prominent Muslims with animal names include: Hamzah, Abd al-Rahman ibn Sakhr Al-Azdi (more commonly known by his kunya "Abu Hurairah" or the Father of the kitten), Abdul-Qadir Gilani (called "al-baz al-ashhab", the wise falcon) and Lal Shahbaz Qalander of Sehwan (called "red falcon").
