![Al-Malik - Al-Maleek - The King - The Almighty King Empty](https://2img.net/i/empty.gif) | موضوع: Al-Malik - Al-Maleek - The King - The Almighty King السبت 28 نوفمبر 2020, 9:53 pm | |
| Al-Malik - Al-Maleek The King - The Almighty King The King is the One to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and earth and all that is between them, and He is the Disposer of the affairs of the universe according to His will and wisdom. This noble name, ‘the King’, occurs 5 times in the Qur’an.
An example is in the following verse: (So high (above all) is Allah, the King, the Truth.) (Sūrat Tāha: 114) And (He is Allah, there is no deity worthy of worship except Him. He is the King, the Holy One.) (Sūrat Al-Hashr: 23)
‘The Almighty King’ is a name that denotes the magnificence of the dominion of Allah. It is more powerful than the name ‘the King’.
Allah’s name ‘the Almighty King’ occurs only once in the Qur’an in a verse in Sūrat Al-Qamar: (Surely the pious will dwell amidst Gardens and running streams (54) where they will be honorably seated in the presence of an Almighty King, a Supreme Determiner.) (Sūrat AlQamar: 54-55)
In light of these two noble names, I would say: 1. You will have a great sense of awe and reverence for Allah when you remember the magnificence of His 27 dominion and His absolute ability to dispose of all affairs within His dominion and all existence, for everything belongs to Him.
2. Knowledge of these excellent names entails that we should worship Allah Almighty alone, with no partner, for He alone is worthy of being worshiped, and all other wrongly worshiped entities are as Allah says,(And those whom you invoke other than Him do not possess (as much as) the membrane of a date seed.) (Sūrat Fātir: 13)
3. Do not seek sustenance except from its Possessor, Glorified is He: (And to Allah belong the treasures of the heavens and earth, but the hypocrites do not comprehend.) (Sūrat Al-Munāfiqūn: 7) And (And there is no creature on earth but that upon Allah is its provision.) (Sūrat Hūd: 6)
4. Allah Almighty is the Owner of the worldly life and the Hereafter. Nonetheless, the verse in Sūrat Al-Fātihah limits this to the Hereafter only. (The Possessor of the Day of Judgment.) The reason for this is that there are those in the world who claim to have power over the dominion and the affairs of life apart from Allah Almighty, to the extent that some even claim to be lords.
For example: Pharaoh said, (I am your most exalted lord.) He also said, (Is not the kingdom of Egypt mine, and are not these rivers running beneath me?) But in the Hereafter, everyone will hide and fall silent as the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Allah will fold the heavens on the Day of Judgment and then take them in His right hand and say, ‘I am the King. 28 Where are the mighty ones? Where are the arrogant ones?’ Then, He will fold the earths and take them in His left (hand) and say, ‘I am the King. Where are the mighty ones? Where are the arrogant ones?’”6 Similarly, it is revealed in Sūrat Ghāfir that Allah Almighty will call out, (To whom belongs (all) sovereignty this Day?)But none will reply to Him. So, Allah will answer Himself, saying, (To Allah, the One, the Superb Vanquisher.) (Sūrat Ghāfir: 16) *** 6 Narrated by Muslim) 29
