Calling The Name Of God

Calling The Name Of God (L–2)

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ

Bis-Millaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim.

In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.

Three names of God Almighty have been described in this verse: Allaah (Allah), Rahmaan and Rahiim.

1. Allaah is such name which is used only for God Almighty. No one else can be called by this name. It is His Personal name. Allaah is the Person Who created the entire universe, like the earth, the skies, the rivers, the mountains, vegetations, minerals & fossils, the moon, the sun and the stars etc. Moon and stars twinkle by His Power. Birds fly by His Command. He causes to rain and grows all kinds of produces.

2. Rahmaan (The Beneficent) is His Attributive name. It is a declaration of His common Pity that He takes pity over His entire creatures equally. His air, rains and other kindnesses are equally advantageous for all, whether someone is good or bad. He bestows to us countless precious blessings without praying.

3. Rahiim (The Merciful) is 2nd Attributive name of Allaah Almighty and declaration of His special Mercy. He bestows specific rewards to His obedient Slaves. He grants seventy-fold more as exchange of goodness.

In the Traditions (Hadith) of His Last Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him), it has come that whenever he, The Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) used to begin any work, first of all he used to recite BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim (In the name of Allaah, the Beneficent, the Merciful.)

Whenever, we shall start any work by His name, then as though; we shall say: My heart is entirely pure, my intention is sincere, my cause is higher, I am obedient slave of Allaah only and I am displeased completely from the infidelity.

While Allaah Almighty is The Beneficent and The Merciful, then we should trust in His Mercy. We should neither lose the spirit, and nor withdraw cowardly. When we shall trust in Allaah Almighty like this, then we shall get success in every field of life certainly. So, the Messenger (grace, glory, blessings and peace be upon him) commanded, “If before beginning of any work, BisMillaahir-Rahmaanir-Rahiim is not recited, God’s blessing would not include in such work and resultant, the heart of that person would not be satisfied from it.

We are going to begin the Lessons from Holy Qur’an by His name. Certainly His help shall be with us and we shall obtain success in our lives.
