Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: In the Friday sermon, the preacher made this supplication: "O He whose command is between the kaf and the nun, remove the hardship from us." He asks: Is this supplication authentic?
Answer:
"His command is between the kaf and the nun" means the saying "Be, and it is," where "Be" is the kaf and "it is" is the nun,[Ya-Sin 36:82]. He is calling upon Allah by one of His attributes, (Glorified and Exalted is He), so there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: In the Friday sermon, the preacher made this supplication: "O He whose command is between the kaf and the nun, remove the hardship from us." He asks: Is this supplication authentic?
Answer:
"His command is between the kaf and the nun" means the saying "Be, and it is," where "Be" is the kaf and "it is" is the nun,
His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, "Be," and it is.
إِنَّمَا أَمْرُهُ إِذَا أَرَادَ شَيْئًا أَن يَقُولَ لَهُ كُن فَيَكُونُ
