He is the Superb Vanquisher:


Abdullah ibn Mushabbib al-Qahtāni

Who responds to those in distress when they supplicate Him and removes the harm from them? Who gives life back to the rotten bones and repeats the creation as He made it in the first place? Who supports the oppressed and helps the weak?

Our Lord is the Vanquisher, the All-Wise. He does not create anything for no purpose, does not neglect anything, and does not accept any act or legislate any law except for a wise purpose, whether it is known or not.

To You the whole matter returns.

And from You hopes and glad tidings are received.

So, who is worthy of being worshiped as the One God? It is definitely Allah, the Superb Vanquisher, to Whom none is equal

Prophet Yūsuf (Joseph) (peace be upon him) used this reasoning in his argument with his two fellow prisoners. He said:

{O [my] two companions of prison, are separate lords better or Allah, the One, the Superb Vanquisher?}

[Surat Yūsuf: 39]

Have you ever seen a vanquished person who can bring himself any good or avert from himself any harm? So, how could we ask from and rely upon weak and vanquished beings, apart from Allah, the One, the Superb Vanquisher?!

When the Prophet (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him) got up from sleep suddenly, he would make this supplication:

“La ilāha illallāh Al-Wāhid Al-Qahhār, Rabbu as-samāwāti wa al-ardi wama baynahuma Al-‘Azīz Al-Ghaffār (There is no god but Allah, the One, the Superb Vanquisher, the Lord of the heavens and the earth and what is between them, the All-Mighty, the Superb Forgiver).”

[Narrated by Ibn Hibbān; Sahīh (authentic)]
