In the Name of Allah, The All-Merciful and Most Merciful
earn His favor. They know that Allah created them and the
universe in complete perfection, down to the most subtle de-
tail, and that He is their only Friend and Protector. They be-
have with the knowledge that He sees and hears them at all
times, and that He is aware of everything.
Human beings have different beliefs or follow those
that are considered heretical by the orthodox. But the impor-
tant thing is to acquire knowledge of Allah through contem-
plating the perfect and incomparably sublime names by
which He reveals Himself in the Qur’an. People need to
abandon their false beliefs and understand these names.
Sincere Muslims know His names and consider them deep
within their hearts. Thus, the way they view life is quite dif-
ferent from how others look at it. They know that Allah is the
universe’s only ruler, has endless power and might, hears
and sees everything, shows endless mercy toward His ser-
vants, is forgiving and protective, sends and removes diffi-
cult times, makes success easy for His servants, is endlessly
just and the Judge of those that pass judgment, and that
everything belongs to Him. As a result, they live their lives
according to this belief. The Qur’an reveals some of His most
beautiful names in the following verses:
He is Allah – there is no deity but Him. He is the Knower
of the Unseen and the Visible. He is the All-Merciful, the
Most Merciful. He is Allah – there is no deity but Him.
He is the King, the Most Pure, the Perfect Peace, the
Trustworthy, the Safe guarder, the Almighty, the
Compeller, the Supremely Great. Glory be to Allah
