My Lord is Allah
Allah Almighty says: {O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, so that you may become righteous}[Ch. 2, Verse 21]
He also says: {He is Allah, other than whom there is no deity}[Ch. 59, Verse 22]
He also says: {There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing}.[Ch. 42, Verse 11]
• Allah is my Lord and the Lord of all things, the Possessor, the Creator, the Provider, the Disposer of everything.
• He alone is worthy of being worshiped. There is no lord or god other than Him.
• To Him belong the excellent names and sublime attributes which He established for Himself and the Prophet established for Him. They are at the pinnacle of perfection and beauty. There is nothing like unto Him, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing.
Some of His Names are:
- Ar-Razzāq (The Provider)
- Ar-Rahmān (The All-Merciful)
- Al-Qadeer (The All-Powerful)
- Al-Malik (The King)
- As-Samee‘ (The All-Hearing)
- As-Salām (The Most Perfect; The Giver of peace)
- Al-Baseer (The All-Seeing)
- Al-Wakeel (The Trustee; The Disposer of affairs)
- Al-Khāliq (The Creator)
- Al-Lateef (The All-Subtle)
- Al-Kāfi (The Sufficient)
- Al-Ghafoor (The Forgiving)
* A Muslim reflects upon Allah's wonderful creation and how He makes things easy for His servants, one aspect of which is the care all creatures give to their young until they grow up and become self-reliant. Glory be to the One Who created them and showed kindness to them as He provided them with that kind of help despite their total powerlessness.
