The phrase "Hasbi" and the attribution of the name al-Mughith to Allah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
I seek forgiveness from Allah for you. What is the ruling on saying "Hasbi"?

The Shaykh:
This is a colloquial expression, but if one says "Hasbuka Allah," that is the correct form.

The questioner:
As for the evidence for attributing the name of the One who answers to Allah the Exalted.

The Shaykh:
Because He is the One who grants relief, and al-Mughith means the One who responds. Al-Ighathah, which is providing relief to one who has fallen into error, is among the names of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He.
