- This speech of Satan means that he believed in God. Nevertheless,
- he’s the head of all atheism. So, it is essential to learn Allah’s names, Godliness,

- In our approach to the study of Allah’s Beautiful Names, we adopt the following procedures:
- First point: the speech about Allah’s Beautiful Name.

- third point: the relationship between true believers and this Name.
- I have previously made clear that it is not enough to believe that Allah exists.
- You have to believe in His existence, His Oneness (in His Divine Self, Attributes and Acts), and His Perfection. In fact,
- your belief in Allah’s Perfection enables you to know His Beautiful Names and Attributes.
- The word “knows” in the above Hadith means that you should know each and every one of Allah’s
- Sometimes, man’s qualities are confused with the Creator’s Attributes.
- Therefore, it is necessary to make clear that if some qualities or attributes are attributed to the Creator,
- they betoken His Divine Perfection, but if they are attributed to human beings, they reflect human imperfection.

- The above Quranic Verse leads us to the twelfth of Allah’s Divine Names, namely “Ar-Razzaq” (The All-Provider).
- In Arabic, the word “Ar-Razzaq” is an emphatic epithet of Allah that means that He, Most Gracious, provides all of His slaves no matter how numerous they might be.
- If He so desires, He provides any of them abundantly and without limits.
- In other words, Allah, All Mighty, is “Ar-Razzaq” (the All-Provider),
- Who provides all of His slaves with sustenance regardless of their number or quantity of provision.
