"Bin Laden" would be the closest thing to a surname equivalent if going with how he and his family usually booked their tickets if flying commercially. It would show up as "Binladen" quite often.
His middle name equivalent -- and there are at least 2-4 of those -- almost never got used in the 1970s-1990s when it came to his travel.
Well..
The main concern will always be: is my name correct on the ticket and will I get mileage credit. Sometimes the tech system does not recognize if name if not spelled out in full.
Mileage credit: that's the ticket.
