Al-Kabīr (The Great)


Abdullah ibn Mushabbib al-Qahtāni

At the doorstep..

Your Lord is the Owner of might and dominion, the Great, the Exalted. Place your needs at His door and stand in humble submission before Him. He will fulfill your needs, remove your illness, repay your  debt, relieve your distress, and put a smile on your face.

He is Allah, the Great, Exalted be He.With your Lord, the Great, your wishes will turn into realities.

And your aspirations, no matter howgreat they may be, are too easy.

And your desires will be fulfilled, along with everything you long for.

He is the Great Lord, to Whom everyone in fear or distress turns. He is Allah, the Great,

{[He is] Knower of the unseen and the seen, the Great, the Exalted.}

[Surat ar-Ra‘d: 9]

Our Lord is the Great and the Exalted. None and nothing whatsoever is greater or more magnificent than He is.

{They have not appraised Allah with true appraisal, while the earth entirely will be [within] His grip on the Day of Judgm ent, and the heavens will be folded in His right hand...}

[Surat az-Zumar: 67]

Our Lord, Exalted be He, is great in His attributes, which comprise all perfection, majesty, and magnificence. None is like, similar, or equal to Him in terms of His perfect attributes.

Our Lord is also great in His actions. His magnificent creation attests to His magnificent actions,

{The creation of the heavens and the earth is indeed greater than the creation of mankind; yet, most people do not know.}

[Surat Ghāfir: 57]

Our Lord is the Great and Majestic God, the Owner of Pride, beside Whose majesty and greatness everything great becomes so insignificant.

Our Lord is Great and far Exalted above all deficiencies, imperfections, and defects.

Moreover, He is Exalted above any evil or in justice.

{...The Great, the Exalted.}

[Surat ar-Ra‘d: 9]

{...So the judgment is with Allah, the High, the Great.}

[Surat Ghāfir: 12]

All praise belongs to You and all blessings and the dominion belong to You, our Lord.

None is ever more glorious than You.

Glory be to the One Who is not appraised properly by His servants, the One and Only God, established above the Throne.
