الْجَبَّارُ
09. AL JABBAR

●TRANSLATION:

•The Compeller,
•The Restorer,
•The Repairer,
•The One that nothing happens in His Dominion except that which He willed.

●MEANING:

• The One who irresistibly restores all of creation to soundness and sufficiency.

• The One who repairs, reforms and completes. The One who irresistibly compels things to be set aright.

• The One who compels each and every thing according to divine will, yet is never compelled.

■HOW TO LIVE BY THIS NAME?

1. Reflect on how Al-Jabbaar compels you.

• Al-Jabbaar compels you by creating you in the way He wills you to be.

You are compelled to accept your form and shape as well as the beating of your heart, your blood circulation, the way your brain works etc.

These are all involuntary actions- they are compelled by Allah's power.

2. Don't try be jabbaar.

• The attribute of jabr does not befit people; you are supposed to be an 'abd (slave) of Al-Jabbaar.

3. Mend someone's heart.

• If you have oppressed someone, ask for their forgiveness straight away.

Mend someone's heart because Al-Jabbaar will mend yours in times of need.

4. Ask Al-Jabbaar.

• The Prophet ﷺ‎ used to say between two prostrations in prayer:

"O Allah, forgive me, have mercy upon me, guide me, support me, protect me, provide for me and elevate me."

(Abu Dawood, Ibn Majah, At-Tirmidhee)

Jazakum Allahu Khairan.

"سُبْحَانَكَ اللْهُمَّ وَبِحَمْدِكَ، أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلهَ إِلَّا أَنْتَ، أَسْتَغْفِرُكَ وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْكَ"

'Glory be to You O Allah, and with Your praise, I testify that there is no God (worthy of worship) except You, I seek Your forgiveness, and I repent to You.'
