Allah (God) Is The Most Beneficent And Merciful

The Most Beneficent And Merciful
A Muslim believes that God of the
whole universe and of each and every thing is only Allah Almighty. Allah
Almighty has beautiful names and His every name has unique meanings. His names
teach us and make us understand about His majesty. His all names are great and
blessed. When we recite them we feel comfort and serenity in our heart and
body. Allah Almighty told us about His great names in the blessed Quran let us read blessed Ayah about the
great names of Allah Almighty;
وَ
لِلّٰہِ
الۡاَسۡمَآءُ
الۡحُسۡنٰی
فَادۡعُوۡہُ
بِہَا
“And for Allah only are the
best names, so invoke Him with them;”
(Surah Al-Aaraaf, Ayah 180)
In this blessed Ayah Allah
Almighty mentioned about His best names and told us to invoke Him with them.
Whenever we get into any trouble and problem, we should invoke Him with His
names. He, the Almighty, will bless us with mercy and blessings. All the names
have their different meanings. If we invoke the blessed names of mercy, we will
receive mercy of Allah Almighty. These names are “الرحمن
الرحيم” .The meanings
of these names are full of mercy. The meanings of these blessed names give us
hope on the mercy of Allah Almighty. When we invoke “الرحمن
الرحيم” and ponder over
the meanings “The Most Gracious, The Most
Merciful.” we feel that He
Almighty is so merciful that He will shower His mercy upon us.
رحمن and رحيم are
two attributive names of Allah Almighty; رحمن means
“that being, as well as being one that bestows blessings, which is very
merciful”, and رحیم means
“the one who shows great mercy.”
One should remember that it is only
the being of Allah Almighty, in reality, which grants blessings and bounties.
It is His being alone that does not seek reward for showing mercy. Every small,
large, seen, unseen, physical, spiritual, wordly and
heavenly blessing or bounty is bestowed by no other than Allah Almighty, any
blessing that has reached anyone in the world is due in fact to the mercy of
Allah Almighty as creating the urge in the heart of someone to be merciful, the
power to enact that mercy, the very existence of blessings and bounties and the
presence of someone to receive the blessing and benefit from it by having been
granted soundness and completeness in body and limbs comes all from Allah
Almighty.
After reading about the
mercy of Allah Almighty, do not become careless about His commandments and do
not commit sins assuming that Allah Almighty is merciful.
It is related from Abu Hurayrah رضی
اللہ عنہ: “The messenger
of Allah صلی
اللہ علیہ
وسلم said, ‘If the believer came to know of
the quantity of punishment with Allah Almighty, no one would
be expectant and hopeful of His paradise, and if the disbeliever came to know
of the quantity of mercy with Allah Almighty, no one would lose hope of His
paradise.’
Therefore, every Muslim
should remain between hope and fear and not, seeing the vastness of the mercy
of Allah Almighty, become unfearful of sins nor, realizing the great intensity
of the punishment of Allah Almighty, despair of His mercy.
Let us read few sublime sayings of the beloved
Rasool صلی اللہ
علیہ وسلم regarding the blessed and best names
of Allah Almighty and make our mind to memorize them.
عَنْ
أَبِي
هُرَيْرَةَ،
رِوَايَةً
قَالَ"
لِلَّهِ
تِسْعَةٌ
وَتِسْعُونَ
اسْمًا، مِائَةٌ
إِلاَّ
وَاحِدًا،
لاَ
يَحْفَظُهَا
أَحَدٌ
إِلاَّ
دَخَلَ
الْجَنَّةَ،
وَهْوَ وَتْرٌ
يُحِبُّ
الْوَتْرَ "
Abu Hurairaرضی اللہ
عنہ narrated that the beloved Rasool صلي الله
عليه وسلم said: Allah has ninety-nine Names, one hundred minus one, and whoever memorize them will enter Paradise; and Allah is witr (one) and loves 'the witr'
(i.e., odd numbers). (Sahih
Bukhari, Kitab ul Dawat,
Hadees No 6410)
عَنْ
أَبِي
هُرَيْرَةَ،
عَنِ
النَّبِيِّ صلى
الله عليه
وسلم قَالَ" إِنَّ
لِلَّهِ
تِسْعَةً
وَتِسْعِينَ
اسْمًا مَنْ
أَحْصَاهَا
دَخَلَ
الْجَنَّةَ "
Abu Huraira رضی
اللہ عنہ narrated that
the Prophet صلی اللہ
علیہ وسلم said: “Indeed, Allah has ninety-nine Names,
whoever counts them shall enter Paradise.” (Tirmizi, kitab ul Dawat, Hadees no 3508)
From these blessed sayings
of the beloved Rasool صلی اللہ
علیہ وسلم, we understood
the blessings of memorizing the names of Allah Almighty. The one who memorizes
them will enter into paradise. So, we should try to invoke and memorize these
names.
Dear brothers! Keep this
important ruling about the blessed name of Allah Almighty in your mind that we
cannot call any person “رحمن” because this is
the great name of Allah Almighty. May Allah Almighty enable us to remember His
blessed names. Aameen
