Hi Ashlyn, 
u were right somehow as Abdul Fataah is a traditional Arabic names. Usually, this name is used among Muslims. I have met Jobes' biological dad... All the ways, uncle Abdul Fatah is at his 80s and in good physiological and mental health...

To poster # 5, 
 
Abdulfattah Jandali was a Syrian Christian (Syriac) who came to the United States on a student visa. He is the biological father of Steve Jobs, which would make him half Syrian Christian or Arab Christian American. However, according to Wikipedia, Steve Jobs is a practicing Buddhist convert. Therefore, it would be more appropriate to consider Steve's religious views as Buddhist. 
 
Hope that helped resolve your query !

This is what genes fallen on good pastures can do. It is no miracle. Jandal is an Arabic root meaning a good size rock. "Jandalÿ" means a strong man; it also means someone whose ancestry goes back to "dwmat åljandal" which is the name of a rocky battlefield in Arabia and was mentioned in Arabic pre-islamic poetry.

I came across this article about his father who seems to truly love his children and wish he could have been more involved in their lives, especially after the mother took Mona away after the divorce - it seems Steve was given up for adoption as the mother's father was against the relationship, probably due to the race of the father. As such the father lost his family eventually and it left a bitterness

Calling biological parents of an adopted child "real parents" or even just "parents" is very offensive. The "real parents" are the parents who raised a child.

@ Hana Shaloub: 
 
He's not Abdulfattah was a Muslim, Jandali family is a well-know MUSLIM FAMILY FROM HIMS 'Syria' if you're Christian that don't mean that he's Christian! And I'm Christian by the way... 
 
Thanks

Sorry for the mistake in my previous comment 'He's not Abdaullfatah....' 
 
I wanted to say 'He's not Christian, Abdulfattah Jandali was a Muslim, and Bdaulfattah is a Muslim name,Jandali family is a well-know MUSLIM FAMILY FROM HIMS Syria' I know some Jandali friends, they're from Hims like the Attasi family and Droubi family, and all are Muslims... So he's not Syriac! This's irrational...

Guys, I am from Syria and I will have a good guess that Steve Jobs was the fruit of an UNWANTED casual relationship birth to Abdulfattah and his collegue at Uni Carole. 
He is probably if aware of his roots is now cursing his father, looking at Steve personality and speeches he is full of rage and maybe complexes ? 
Anyway, the point is STOP pleading someone who never even mentioned his father's homeland even as a curse ! 
Hope I have not offended anyone

Why this obsession with the man's religion? 
Surely in the 21st century mankind is beyond this need to believe in some religious mythology? 
 
And by the way Buddhism is not a religion.
