Reflecting on the Names of Allah

Product Information

I felt that simply memorizing the 99 names of Allah (S) was not enough and wanted to delve a little deeper so this series of reflections was perfect to read. For every time we say one of these divine titles aloud or keep them in our hearts, a connection to Allah strengthens within us. Making clusters of these words can make them easier to memorize; most melodies are also made using this technique. In summary, the 99 Names of Allah provide Muslims with a powerful source of spiritual guidance, and can help to build a deeper connection to Allah.

Furthermore, each name is used for a specific purpose or goal in life, such as guidance, protection, strength, knowledge and wisdom. Additionally, meditating on these names can help to heal physical ailments, reduce stress and anxiety, and even bring about the desired outcome of a person’s prayers. Although we can’t even imagine Him, considering that all we know and perceive is part of or bear some similarities with creation, He is All-Hearing and All-Seeing of our affairs. This knowledge is essential for establishing a foundation for Islamic beliefs and values that we can adhere to daily.

Ultimately, by understanding these names we can draw closer to Allah and appreciate the beauty of Islam in all its forms.

The writing flows smoothly and is down to earth, making it relatable and easy to incorporate into every day practice. If he remembers Me in himself, I too, remember him in Myself; and if he remembers Me in a group of people, I remember him in a group that is better than they; and if he comes one span nearer to Me, I go one cubit nearer to him; and if he comes one cubit nearer to Me, I go a distance of two outstretched arms nearer to him; and if he comes to Me walking, I go to him running.The 99 Names of Allah are a compilation of divine attributes that make up the Islamic concept of God.
