Topic: Whose Name should be Written in the Parentage Section if the Child is Adopted?    (No-19210)

Q Is it permissible for a person who has adopted a child to write their own name as the adopted child’s father?

a According to the teachings of the Quran and Sunnah, a child should always be attributed to their biological father. Changing a child’s parentage is strictly prohibited. Therefore, the child’s biological father’s name should be written in the parentage section of every document, as it is not permissible to write the name of the person who has adopted the child as the child's father.
That being said, it is acceptable for the child to call their adoptive parents “mother” or “father” as a sign of respect.

القرآن الکریم: (الاحزاب، الآیۃ: 5)
اُدۡعُوۡہُمۡ لِاٰبَآئِہِمۡ ہُوَ اَقۡسَطُ عِنۡدَ اللّٰہِ ۚ فَاِنۡ لَّمۡ تَعۡلَمُوۡۤا اٰبَآءَہُمۡ فَاِخۡوَانُکُمۡ فِی الدِّیۡنِ وَ مَوَالِیۡکُمۡ ؕ وَ لَیۡسَ عَلَیۡکُمۡ جُنَاحٌ فِیۡمَاۤ اَخۡطَاۡتُمۡ بِہٖ ۙ وَ لٰکِنۡ مَّا تَعَمَّدَتۡ قُلُوۡبُکُمۡ ؕ وَ کَانَ اللّٰہُ غَفُوۡرًا رَّحِیۡمًاo

شرح النووی علی مسلم: (144/9، ط: دار احیاء التراث العربی)
قوله صلى الله عليه وسلم (ومن ادعى إلى غير أبيه أو انتمى إلى غير مواليه فعليه لعنة الله والملائكة والناس أجمعين) هذا صريح في غلظ تحريم انتماء الإنسان إلى غير أبيه أو انتماء العتيق إلى ولاء غير مواليه لما فيه من كفر النعمة وتضييع حقوق الإرث والولاء والعقل وغير ذلك مع ما فيه من قطيعة الرحم والعقوق
