How to write the name Abdullah

Taken from Sharh Muqadimmah Sunnan Ibn Maajah, Tape 7
Questioner: May Allaah Grant you with good, the ministries often print the name Abdullah into two separate parts, so they write the word Abd and then the word Allaah…
Shaykh AbdulKareem ibn Abdullah al-Khudayr [May Allaah Preserve him]: This is wrong, it is a mistake in the way they are writing.
Questioner: As they do for Abd Allaah ibn ad-Dulaymee, so they make the word Allaah at the end…
Shaykh AbdulKareem ibn Abdullah al-Khudayr [May Allaah Preserve him]: This has been addressed in some of the books of ‘Uloom al-Hadeeth, they stated that from the etiquettes of writing is that we don’t make a split between a noun and the governed noun [Mudaaf] and this is general. So for example, the boy Zayd, this wouldn’t have a space in between the word boy and Zayd. This is especially the case for the Lord, The Exalted and Glorified, so we should put the name of Allaah before anything, so the person who reads it would say…
Questioner: Allaah ibn ad-Dulaymee, the name of the Glorified and Exalted is written and then ibn ad-Dulaymee.
Shaykh AbdulKareem ibn Abdullah al-Khudayr [May Allaah Preserve him]: Yes, Allaah ibn ad-Dulaymee, this is prohibited when writing by the people of knowledge and the books of Mustalah aren’t free from such examples
