- Ramadan Lectures 1446 AH – The Most Beautiful Names of Allah
In the Name of Allah, The Most Gracious, Most Merciful
Dear noble brothers, today explore another of Allah's Most Beautiful Names, and it is Al-Azeem.
Al-Azeem in Arabic language is words that resemble the active participle, donating the One who attains Greatness. This greatness is derived from the verb 'to be great', which signifies that He is Vast, Exalted, Transcendent, and Magnificent.
Allah, may His Glory be glorified, is Great in the sense of possessing a magnitude that transcends human comprehension. All minds are unable to comprehend Allah's Greatness, and Allah is the opposite of whatever you may conceive of Him in your mind.
Allah is Exalted above any imagination of His true nature, and no one knows Allah except Allah. Even the Prophet PBUH, who is the Master of all Prophets and Messengers PBUT, and who possesses knowledge greater than any other human being, does not have absolute knowledge but rather relative.
Allah is Great in His Divine Character and Attributes. His Greatness is affirmed in numerous Ayaat in the Quran. Allah Almighty has a Divine Character, Attributes, and Actions, and He is Great in all of them.
