Beautiful Names of Allah - 02

Yasir Qadhi

Shaykh Dr Yasir Qadhi divulges immense details on the most common and primary name of our Creator, "Allah” which is mentioned approximately 3500 times in the Qur'an. The name Allah comes from "Alaha," which means to turn to for protection and help, which every single creation in the heavens and earth do. However, the preferred meaning has the name coming from "Aliha-Ya'lahu," which means "to worship." So, Allah means the one who "is worshipped" and "deserves to be worshipped".  What are the Characteristics of the Name Allah? This name encompasses all the other names of Allah, because the one who "is" and "deserves" to be worshipped must have all the other qualities (i.e, other names of Allah). All four primary Adhkar (SubhanAllah, Alhamdulillah, LailahaIllallah and AllahuAkbar) also revolve around this name. The name is very easy on the tongue and has a special "Tafkheem" (heaviness) in pronunciation. Over 33 verses begin with the name Allah in the Noble Qur'an.
