Description

When we supplicate to Allah, we are encouraged to call Him by His beautiful names or by the relevant name that is related to our request or need. For example, if our request concerns our provision in life, we might call out to Al-Razzaq, The Provider. These names do not indicate that Allah is more than one being; they are names that describe the different attributes that belong to the One True God (Allah). We human beings can never comprehend the greatness of Allah, but the more we know about Him and what pleases Him, the better we can love and worship Him. Learning about Allah - through studying and understanding His names and attributes- brings us peace of mind in this life and the next because we acknowledge that everything is in His hands and happens according to His Will.
