An Attribute is A quality or characteristic . We say of an Attribute that it is a quality possessed by a person or thing . But Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala is nether of these , So the word Attribute '' Has a special meaning when related to him . An Attribute of Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala is a quality possessed by him only , Which neither changes nor diminishes . Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala is the owner and disposer of all the qualities that man can think of and it is from these qualites that his actions proseed . He possesses an immeasurable source of mercy , Kindness , Compassion and Peacefulness , To name a few . He endows man with some degress of these Attributes , But man will not attain to his level .

In the arabic , The word used for '' Attribute '' or '' Quality is '' SIFAT '' . The word used for names is '' ASMAA ' I '' From the singular '' ISMUN '' Which is also synonymous with the word '' NOUN , '' Any divine Attribute is called '' ISMU SIFAT ' The beautiful names of Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala, Are not to be disrespected . When used as personal names , They must be preceeded by the word '' ABD '' Which means '' SLAVE '' . For example '' Abdu'L Alyim '' Slave '' ( Or Servant ) of the knower . It is Blasphemy to call oneself '' Allah '' , And there is no such name as '' Abdul Akbar '' .

Hadiyth 489 -- Narrated Abu Huraira Allah's Apostle ( Pbuh ) Said ; ''Allah Has Ninety - Nine ( 99 ) Names , One Hundred But One ; And He Who Memorizes Them All By Hear Will Enter Paradise . ( 1 ) To Count Something Means To Know It By Heart , '' < Bukhari >

Hadiyth 224 --- Narrated Abu Huraira ( Hwon ) ; Allah's Apostle ( Pbuh ) Said , ''The Most Awful Name In Allah's Sight On The Day Of Resurrection , Will Be ( That Of ) A Man Calling Himself Malik Al Mulk ( The Kings Of Kings ) '' . < Bukhari >

Hadiyth 225 --- Narrated Abu Huraira ( Hwon ) ; The Prophet ( Pbuh ) Said '' The Meanest Name In Allah's Sight , '' Sufyan Said More Than Once , '' The Meanest Name In Allah's Sight ,Is ( That Of ) A Man Calling Himself King Of Kings , '' 'Sufyan Said ; '' Somebody Else ( I.E. , Other Than Abu Az Zinad , A Sub Narrator ) Says ; What Is Meant By '' The King Of Kings '' Is Shahan Shah , < Bukhari >


Maaliku'L Mulk means Master , Owner , Ruler , King Of The Kingdom . It is The 83rd Attribute of Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala . One should not call oneself this title because it belongs solely to Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala , This name can only be used as Abdul Maliku'L Mulk ( Servant Of The Master Of The Kingdom ) . During the age of ignorance , That period of time directly preceding the rebirth of Islaam , The Arabs used to name themselves after their idols . For example ''Abdul Manat , '' This , As the prophet ( Pbuh ) instructed them , was forbidden . Other names which were made of the name of the son preceded by of and known as '' Kunya '' , Were also put out of use .

The Statement Of The Prophet ( Pbuh ) '' Name Yourselves By My Name , But Do Not Name After '' Kunya . This Statement Has Come From The Prophet ( Pbuh ) On The Authority Of Anas '' < Bukhari >

Hadiyth 206 --- Narrated Jabir ( Hwon ) A Man Among Us Begot A Boy Whom He Named Al Qasim . The People Said , '' We Will Not Call Him ( I.E. The Father ) By That Kunya ( Abul Qasim ) Till We Ask The Prophet ( Pbuh ) About It . The Prophet ( Pbuh ) Said . ''Name Yourselves By My Name , But Do Not Name Yourselves After My Kunya < Bukhari >

The name Al Waarith is the 97th Attribute meaning The '' Inheritor '' . It is not to be used without the title '' Abdui '' In fromt of it . Waaritha means to '' Inherit '' , And to name yourself '' Warith '' Without the proper respect for '' Abdul '' Is wrong . You are mixing your life into Allah's name , And that is A Sin . Only Allah stands to Inherit , Or to possess . He created everything , And that is why he can inherit . An Nuwr is The 93rd Attribute of Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala . This name , Like the others , Should not be used without the preceding Abd . Some names which stem from The Attributes do not utilize , Either or for examples .

Nuwr Ud Diyn ; Brightness of the sentence . The Name Yadullahi can also be used . But in the spelling A Kasrah is placed beneath the last letter . This is so that it is not pronounced '' Yadullah , Feminine names are made by the addition of Taa Marbuwta -- At the end of the word without the definite article . For example ; Shahiydat '' Pronounced '' Shahiydah '' . One should still exercise some restraint in choosing such names -- That is unless the person is sincere about living up to that quality -- And make sure it is not one of the more profound titles .

Hadith 212 . Narrated Narrated Abu Huraira ( Hwon ) ; Zainab's Original Name Was '' Barrah '' , But It Was Said '' By That She Is Giving Herself The Prstige Of Piety , '' So The Prophet ( Pbuh ) Changed Her Name To Zainab . < Bukhari >


Some Aspects Of Suwfi Doctrine

The word Suwfiy is from the word Suf '' Pure '' . As a term it .. Is usally related to one or all of the many Muslim societies which concentrate mainly on the mystical aspects of Islam , Devoting a great part of their time to Dhikr - Remem-Brance Of Allah . The Suwfi orders are collectively called Tasawwuf .. Among some of the major points of Suwfi doctrine are the following ;

1 . Allah Is One , All Things Are Within Him And He Is Within Everything ....
2 . The True Base Of The Suwfi Is Found In Islaam ....
3 . Good And Evil Have No Real Distinct Meaning To Them When It Has To Do With Unity Because Both Fall Under Unity ; Whether It's Unity With Good Or Evil , Because Allah Is The Judge Of The Evil And Good Of Man ....
4 . He Created Everything Invisible And Visible , And Everything Started From Him ...
5 . The Spirit Was First , Then The Soul . Then The Physical Shell ( The Body ) . Death Will Bring One Closer To Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala But It Is A Sin To Bring Death Upon One 's Self ....
6 . One Whose Soul Has Not Yet Been Purified Has A Chance To Become Worthy To Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala ....
7 . The Suwfi Say Without Fayadhanu'Illah Or Fadhlu' llah ( Which Is Greace Of Allah ) No Individual Can Elevate To That Particular Spiritual Plane Unless They Fervenyly Ask For It . And The Way To Do This Is Through Constant Dhikr ; Remembrance Of Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala ....
8 . Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala Guides Whom He Pleases , Therefore He Controls Your Everyday Actions ...

'' Glory To You Oh Allah , And In Your Praise And Blessed Is Your Name , And Exalted Your Majesty And Magnifcent Your Creature And Nothing Gives Live Besides You .

The Beautiful Names ..
He Allah , He Who Nothing Creates Except He ...

Ar Rahmaan ~ Is the first of The Attributes of Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala . Together with the second Attribute . Ar Rahiym , It is mentioned in The Holy Qur'aan more frequently than any other Attribute . The word has its root inthe verse Rahima - To Yield , Or to concede . Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala is The Yielder . He Yields to all . Both The Evil and The Good , The believer and the coverers of the truth ; Al Kaafiruwna . It is through his Yielding that he has sent us prophet ( pbut ) and guides with laws to guide man back to himself . He Yields by granting man many chances to make amends and to get back on the Siraatu'l Mustaqiym . He will continue To Yield until the last day when men will be brought to account for their Deeds . Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala Yields by causeing us to blink . This is an action which man has almost no control over . Yet without this gift that Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala has so mercifully bestowed upon us , Our eyes would dry out . Ar Rahmaan is included in the sacred seal of The Holy Qur'aan , The Tasmiyah ; ( In The Name Of Allah The Yielder , The Merciful . ) All but one of The One Hundred And Fourteen Chapters of The Holy Qur'ann begins with The Tasmiyah , And this accounts for the frequency of The Attribute Ar Rahmaan . In the exercise of this quality , The forces of nature are brought under control , To the extent that the various species of all ; Living things do not outrun and intermingle with each other . The elements are held in check so they do not completely destroy all the rest of creation , Such is the power of Ar Rahmaan . Without this quality , Man would be completely overtaken by his own errors and dectroy himself .


Ar Rahiym '' The Merciful '' Ar Rahiym is the second of Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala Attributes . It is most often said and written along with the first Attribute Ar Rahmaan , As in the case of The Tasmiyah And many verses throughout The Holy Qur'aan . What best demonstrates Allah's Mercy ? The rain falls and the sun shines on The Good and The Bad alike . All inclusive and perfect . Mercy given to both the Worthy and the Unworthy is from Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala . It flows from him like a never ending stream . It's fairly obvious that Allah's mercy is turned favorable towards man in this life where there is Guidance and Faith , Which is the Key to gaining Enternal Peace in the next world . Rasuwl Allah ( Pbuh ) once said '' When Allah Created Creation , He Wrote In A Book That Is Presserved Beside His Heavenly Throne , That His Mercy Overwhelms His Anger . The Very Creating And Ordering Of The Universe Is The Act Of Mercy For Which All Things Sing To Him Praise And Glory . All Gratitude Is Due To Allah , Al Hamdu Lillahai . Revelation Of Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala Sacred Word Is A Sign Of His Mercy And Goodness , And Also His Guidance Sent By Way Of The Prophets (Pbut ) And Apostles (Pbut ) ,

So Compreshensive Is The Attribute , That It Encompasses The Execution Of All Of Allah's Attributes . Even When Our Narron Scope Of The World Clouds Our Understanding Of The Goodness Of Allah's Terrible Attribute , Which Are Those Attributes That Allah Uses When He Wants To Destroy , Take A Life , Etc . The Mercy Of This Is That They Work In Silent Wonder , Such As A Rainy Day . This We Judge As A Nasty Day Because It Inconveniences Us . But Do We Ever Stop To Consider The Good The Rain Is Doing ? No , Not Many Of Us Do . Perhaps There Is Loose Dust Flying Through The Air And Clogging The Nasal Passages Of Pedestrians Passing A Construction Site . The Radiation Count In The Air Is Especilly High , And The Rain Washes It Away . Indeed Allahu Subhaanahu Wa Ta'Ala Is The Most Merciful Of Those Who Show Mercy ..

Holy Qur'aan 3 ; 31
''Say , If You Allah , Then Follow Me ; Allah Will Then Love You , And Forgive Your Sins . Allah Is Forgiver , Merciful .

If This Attribute Is Said One Hundred Times After Each Fard Salaat ( Worship ) , He / She Will Find The World . Friendly To Him / Her .
