Abdul Azim (Arabic: عبد العظيم‎‎) is a male Muslim given name. It is built from the Arabic words Abd, al- and Azim. The name means "servant of the Mighty", Al-'Azīm being one of the names of God in the Qur'an, which give rise to the Muslim theophoric names.

The letter a of the al- is unstressed, and can be transliterated by almost any vowel, often by u. So the first part can appear as Abdel, Abdul or Abd-al. The second part can also be written Adeem or in other ways. The whole name is subject to variable spacing and hyphenation.

It may refer to:

  • Abdel Azim Ashry (1911–1997), Egyptian basketball player
  • Abdul Azim al-Deeb (1929-2010), Egyptian professor of jurisprudence at Qatar University
  • Wajih Abdel-Azim, Egyptian footballer
  • Abdul-Adeem Karjimi, Moroccan footballer
