Naming with the Beautiful Names of Allah and Naming a Creation with Their Attributes
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And those who gave us our children to Allah, and I seek refuge in Allah. They say: "The best of the Sunnah," or that it is apparent, or that it is anger, or anger, or jealousy.
Answer:
It is not befitting to describe things in this manner. However, it is not forbidden. For example, "al-Zahir" (the Apparent) is used for a creation, just as "al-Aziz" (the Mighty) and "al-Malik" (the King) are used for a creation. Even if the name resembles Allah's name in wording, the meaning is different, the reality is different, and the manner is different. "Al-Qahhar" (the Subduer) is not permissible to say for anyone except Allah the Exalted and Majestic. No one is called "Al-Qahhar." "Al-Wahid al-Qahhar" (The One, The Subduer) is Allah. If "Al-Qahhar" is said of a creation, "Jabbar" means one who is arrogant; this is an attribute of sin for a creation. For a creation, "Jabbar" is an attribute of sin. As for Allah the Exalted and Majestic, it is an attribute of benefit, because His *Jabrut* (dominion) is with truth, power, and authority from Him, Blessed and Exalted is He. Also, "Jabbar" means one who mends the broken and mends hearts.
