Seeking Nearness to Allah Through the Name al-Fard in Supplication
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Al-Fard, O Shaykh.
The Shaykh:
Yes. It is said, "O al-Fard, O al-Samad." This is in the category of informing, meaning. I do not know the meaning, and I do not know the meaning, but seeking nearness to Allah through the well-known names, such as "O al-Rahman, O al-Rahim, O al-Aziz," and other well-known names, is more preferable. For this reason, it is transmitted with the voice, and I know that there is much of this in the speech of al-Fallah.
