- Names of Allah- 2008
From Allah’s names and attributes: AL-Qadeer: The Omnipotent, The Powerfull:
Oh respected brother, we are going over a new name of all the Most Beautiful names, the Lord is all mighty: and today’s name is (The Omnipotent, The Powerful, The Competent).
"And (all) the Most Beautiful Names belong to Allah, so call him by them"
1. The humankind is impotent, powerless and incompetent:
Allah’s Names are beautiful, and His attributes are graceful. Humankind originally created in loving the competent. There is meek in the human’s creation that weakness is for his own good, which will lead him to becoming religious. Some people respond to different believes to satisfy a desire in their selves; it came from their weaknesses. Thus, a weak man desires a strong man.
"and man created weak (cannot be patient to leave sexual intercourse with woman)"
"Verily, man was created very impatient; Irritable when evil touches him; and niggardly when good touches him"
Humankind without realizing pursue to a competent person for refuge, and protection. Therefore, when the man seeks Allah’s refuge, the creator of the heavens and the earth, he will complete his incompetent. Allah (SWT) wanted us to know Him, believe in Him and obey Him to gain the fruits of the worship (uboodeeiah).
"Allah is capable to do anything"
2. Humankind has the tendency headed to the capable person:
Knowledgeable person who is willing to listen, and hear is likeable by sh3er.
"Allah knows the fraud of the eyes and all that the breasts conceal"
Allah SWT listens if you speak, and Almighty sees when you move. Almighty knows when even if you kept it in your heart. Moreover, a person will seek help only if they are so sure that a strong power will hear it. It is pointless to go to a poor person asking for money instead should go to someone who thinks he might have it. It is an illusion to think that someone has it. Thus, whom should we ask? We should ask to the one who listens. Added, we should pray to the almighty that could solve our problems. Pray to the one who loves you. Stay away from the competent who goes against you; you should not go to this person. Instead, go to the powerful one who will have mercy on you. Once you pray to Allah SWT and asking him, it approves you believe in his being, hearing, sight, knowledge, omnipotent, and mercy.
Thus,
"say O Muhammad (pbuh) to the disbelievers: My lord pays attention to you only because of your invocation to him, but now you have indeed denied (Him)"
Numan bin Basheer narrated, what the prophet (pbuh) said about the verse that says:
“ Allah said, make duaa and I will replay”
( supplication is the worship)
Anas bin Malek narrated, prophets (pbuh) said:
“ Allah said, make duaa and I will replay”
( supplication is the worship)
Supplication is the worship. Once you pray to Allah SWT from the bottom of your heart and you are sincere of his knowing, hearing, seeing, his ability to respond to you, he automatically loves and have mercy on you, therefore, you are a believer.
For that reason, some of Allah’s names are closer than the other names sometimes, so humankind is weak and needing:
"The man was created horrified"
Meanings, he is terrified, so protective of what one have got in his hands:
"And the man was created weak"
Meaning, your fear, your weakness, your apprehension, and your protectiveness of what you have got in your hands; these are the traits of the impatient, and they are for the best of your own good.
3. Everything is in God’s hands “The Powerful”:
Have all your pride to Him is all Mighty
And if your pride to the one who dies
Your pride is worthless….
Once a believer be proud of being Allah’s believer that makes him stronger than ever.. It was mentioned if you wanted to be the strongest among people then depend on Allah, and if you wanted to be the kindest among people then fear Allah…
4. Believing in Allah is the most powerful that sends a tranquility, stability, and victory:
When someone believes everything around is under Allah’s hands, it does not give any chance for fear and sadness a place to control someone’s heart. Having faith in Allah is the foundation of the psychological health…Allah SWT mentioned in all kinds of Quranic stories for us, and one of those stories is the story of the Pharaoh when he lets the prophet Moses and the children of Israel go. In the Pharaoh’s mind was wanted to go after them to get them…the way it looks they came into a dead end; there is no chance to escape for the Moses and his people who were poor and weak from the Pharaoh who was powerful and petrifying…
"The companions of Moses said: “We are sure to be overtaken” * Moses said: “Nay, verily, with me is my Lord. He will guide me"
Allah is so loving and carrying; he wanted you to trust Him and have faith in Him. Assuring of Allah’s victory is a sign of the believer. Our royal model, the prophet Muhamad (PBUH) had an interesting story when he went to Tief ( a city in Saudi Arabia). People made fun of him, underestimate him, and had the younger folks thorough rocks at him until he bled. In his way back to Makkah, Zaid, his companion told him: “Oh prophet, you wanted to go back there after what they did to you”. The prophet replay was “Allah SWT will grant victory to his prophet”. In another word, by knowing Allah (SWT) will render victorious, is the solid ground of trusting Him.
Our beloved prophet had another story to teach us more about the name of the Almighty. When (PBUH) migrated to Madina, there was a reward of a hundred camels.
(back then it was a big deal to earn 100 camels) for whomever will catch him and bring him back weather dead or a life. A young man by name Suraqa wanted to arrest him and kill the prophet. (PBUH) knew that and simply told him that he will come to Madina with him peacefully. Added, (PBUH) predicted for Suraqa that he will establish an army to overcome Kesra: the king of Persia, and take over everything in Persia. Back then, Persia was one of the greatest countries in that time.
Have you all noticed the whole world agreed against the Islamic world? Any violent behavior is, on this Earth weather if it was severe or not, attributed to Muslims. The whole world is against Islam. One of the media agenda is framing and giving Islam bad names. Whoever, the strong, honest believer does not deteriorate. Allah will grant victory to Islam and his believer.
"So do not become weak (against your enemy), nor be sad, and you will be superior (in victory) if you are indeed (true) believer"
Non-sense illusions that contradicts faith:
Disbelieving the following will contradict believing in Allah (SWT):
*Allah knows what goes on in this world:
"but a leaf falls, but He knows it"
*Allah is able to demolish his enemies:
"Allah is capable to do anything"
*Allah cares about what goes on this planet:
"who is truly God to be worshiped in the heaven and the only God in to be worshiped in Earth"
*Allah knows what the disbeliever can do:
"And let not those who disbelieve think that they can outstrip (escape from the punishment). Verily, they will never be able to save themselves (from Allah’s punishment)"
There is a reason what goes on in this world and it is actually benefits the Muslims and that is a hidden blessing unlike the obvious one:
" Allah had completed and perfected His Grace upon you, (both) apparent and hidden"
Thus, (The Most Omnipotent) fulfill the heart with tranquility, integrity, and gain trust of Allah’s victory.
5. (The Most Omnipotent) was mentioned in the holy book and the Sunna:
The name was mentioned in the Quran and the sunna. It was repeated thirty times, for example:
1. Chapter 30 verse 54:
"He creates what He will, and it is He who is the All-Knowing, the All-Powerful “able to do anything”"
2. This verse repeated thirty time in the Quran such as chapter 35, verse 1:
"Allah is capable to do anything"
3. Chapter 2, verse 26:
"Say Muhamad PBUH, “O Allah! Possessor of the kingdom, You give the kingdom to whom You will, and You take the kingdom from whom You will, and You endue with honor whom You will, an You humiliate whom You will. In Your Hand is the good. Verily, You are able to do all things”"
4. Chapter 35, verse 2:
"Whatever of mercy, Allah may grant to mankind, none can withhold it; and whatever He may withhold, none can grant it thereafter. And He is the All-Mighty, the All-Wise"
6. The Arabic root of Al- Qadeer:
Al-Qadeer comes from estimation, evaluation, the ability, or the capacity. Sometimes a person has lots of knowledge; it makes him very accurate in his evaluation. In another words, someone can be strong without knowledge or knowledgeable without capability. In some cases, a person appreciates someone who they do not love but is able to do anything. In other cases, people love incapable person. However, as much as the appreciation of the Goddess identity is also loved and glorified.
"Blessed is the Name of your Lord, the Owner of Majesty and Honour"
Allah SWT is the Almighty God. He has an accurate knowledge of what goes on in this life, and able to do anything. People will have tranquility knowing he is the most mighty God because of His knowledge and power.
7. The Almighty God’s name runs the person’s life in his/ her daily routine:
Allah SWT has a decree that is from knowledge and power. It controls any person’s daily life. Thus, running to him gives tranquility, and peace.
"Verily, in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest"
Meaning: hearts will rest with remembering Allah and that comes from being with Allah SWT. He SWT gives health, money, intelligence, beauty, and power to people; however, he gives peace of mind to his believers.
Last but not least, mankind is weak, poor, and ignorant and Allah is powerful, rich and most knowing. Allah is with you anywhere we go, so be with him to become gain power..
