Blessed Names and Attributes of Allah

ALLAH, the Overpowering One, salvages us in our crisis and comforts and consoles us in our loss and sorrow.

We possess all that we have owing to His mercy.

Allah’s compassion towards us consists in:
• His overlooking our sins and accepting our repentance;
• His blessing us with numerous bounties;
• His affection for us in both this world and the next;
• His granting rewards to us in Paradise;
• His favours to us, without asking for anything in return which may benefit Him.

The remembrance of His excellent name is in our own interest, in that it keeps our inner being and our social fabric intact and safe against disorder and chaos.

since Allah alone enjoys all power and might, we must turn only to Him for all help. Only He can rescue man and meet all of his needs, in that He enjoys absolute power and can execute all that He wills.
