Very close match. Does any of our linguists have a clue regarding the difference between Abu-Ans vs. Abu-Ilyas.
Abu means father/father of
I'm going to say what I'm getting from this, and I'm no expert on this, so anyone jump in here.
Abu means father, so one of them seems to have a father named Ans, and the other one's father's name is Ilyas.
The al-Maghribi I think means they are both of Maghrib, and possibly cousins, at least tribesmen I suppose. I'm thinking here of all those of Saddam's kin whose names ended with al-Tikriti.
The link in 3923 speaks of Abu Ans al-Maghribi. The guy in the link in 3944 is Abu Ilyas al-Maghribi among other names. I think they are not the same.
Anyone else?
