Al Jabbar

(The Overpowering)

(Surah Al-Hashr 59:23)

Allah, the Overpowering One, salvaged us in our crisis and comforts and consoles us in our loss and sorrow. Moreover, it is He who enables us to see and follow the straight way which will accrue success to us in this world and the next. In recognition of the truth embodied in this divine name, the Prophet (peace be upon him) recited this supplication:

"Glory be to Allah who owns all kingdom, dominion, glory, greatness and splendor."

(Al-Tabarani, Al-Mu'jam)
