Description
Tradesmen look at buildings differently, depending on their trade: The carpenter casts an eye on the woodwork, the bricklayer on the brickwork & the painter on the walls & ceilings. Similarly, the greater a person’s perception of Allāh’s names, the greater their alertness and understanding of life. Nothing passes them by, without thought & contemplation.
When they see a display of mercy, they automatically and very naturally reflect on the names of Allah; Ar-Rahīm (The Most Merciful), Ar-Rauf’ (The Pitying), Al-Wadud (The Affectionate). When they sense might & awe, they are overcome with the names Al-Jabbār (The Compeller), Al-Muntagim (The Avenger) & Al-Qahhar (The Subduer).
Eventually, they reach a station where every scene that unfolds, any sin which presents itself or any opportunity that drifts by, becomes a trigger for perusal and the remembrance of Allāh, the achievement of which is precisely the objective of this book.
