The Name and Attribute of Allah should be Unique and should Only belong to Him and no one else – Dr Zakir Naik
COG-15
The Qur’an says in Surah Isra, Chapter No. 17, Verse No. 110,
“Qulid`ullaah ‘Awid`ur-Rahmaan ‘Ayyama Tad`u Falahul ‘Asma’ ul Husna”
“Say: call upon him by Allah or by Rahman, by whichever name you call upon him to him belongs the most beautiful names.”
You can call Allah (Subhanahu wa ta’ala) by any name but it should be a beautiful name. It should be a name given by Allah (Subhanahu wa ta’ala). It should not conjure up a mental picture. And there are no less than 99 different attributes given to Allah (Subhanahu wa ta’ala) in the Qur’an, Ar Rahman, Ar Rahim, Al Hakim, Most Merciful, Most Benevolent, Most Wise… no less than 99 and the crowing one is Allah.
And this verse to Allah belongs the most beautiful name, besides Surah Isra, Chapter No. 17, Verse No. 110, is also mentioned in Surah A’raaf Chapter No. 7 Verse No. 180 and Surah Ta Ha Chapter No. 20 Verse No. 8 and well as Surah Al Hashr Chapter No. 59 Verse No. 24,
“To Allah belong the most beautiful names”
And there are certain criteria as far as the name and attributes of Allah are concerned. It should be a name given by himself and besides that it should be a unique name for example, most of us know that the first man who set foot on the moon he was Neil Armstrong. Now if I have to give an attribute to Neil Armstrong and if I say that Neil Armstrong is an Astronaut. Yes Neil Armstrong is an Astronaut, but it’s not unique, there are thousands of Astronauts. If you reverse it, who’s an Astronaut? The answer will not be Neil Armstrong it can be something else. It can be a thousand people. If I say Neil Armstrong is an Amercian, there are millions of people who are American. Who’s an American? You can give a million names, its not unique belonging to Neil Armstrong alone. So if I have to give a unique attribute to Neil Armstrong, I have to say Neil Armstrong is the first man who set foot on the moon. If you reverse it who’s the first man who set foot on the moon, the reply is Neil Armstrong. So similarly when you give an attribute to Almighty God, it should be unique. If you say Almighty God created a building… Who can create a building? There can be a thousand people who can create a building, but if you say he’s The Creator or the Creator of the Universe… Who’s the creator of the universe? Allah (Subhanahu wa ta’ala). Ar Raheem, Most Merciful. Who is the Most Merciful? Answer is only one, Allah. So the attribute you give and the name you give should be unique and belong only to Allah and no one else.
