Introduction ح ام د ا و م ص ل ي ا ا م ا ب ع د I have compiled this work about the beautiful attributive names of Allāh جل جلاله in Arabic poetry form. These names are in addition to the 99 names of Allāh جل جلاله which are commonly known as Asmā al Husnā I have undertaken this task when my close associates have insisted that I compile the Qasīdah and after making Istikhāra it begun. I have named this compilation ا ل م ن ظ و م ال ا س م ى ف ى ا س م اء ال ح س ن ى better known as Qasīdah Tūba. (Tūba is a tree in Jannah laden with fruit that reaches into the dwellings. It also means good news and glad tidings - for those that read this Qasīdah) This Qasīdah happens to be (one of ) the first Qasīdah s as far as Asmā al Husnā is concerned. Alhamdulillāh by reciting this Qasīdah many benefits pertaining to this 5
world and the hereafter will be obtained. The readers will experience this themselves. I have recommended this Qasīdah to one of my associates who was in difficulty. He read it and alhamdulillāh with the barakah of Asmā al Husnā his difficulty was removed. It comes in a hadīth that the reciter of the Asmā al Husnā will enter Jannah. The muhaddithīn (the experts in the field of hadīth) have said : There is not anything more effective for duas to be readily accepted than the Asmā al Husnā. The benefits of reading Asmā al Husnā in. ﷺ the light of the sayings of Rasulullāh Rasulullāh ﷺ said who ever is inflicted with any sorrow or grief must read the following dua ا لل ه م إ ن ي ع ب د ك و اب ن ع ب د ك و اب ن أ م ت ك ن اص ي ت ي ف ي يد ك م اض ف ي ح ك م ك ع د ل اس م ه و ل ك ف ي ق ض اؤ ك أ س أ ل ك ب ك ل 6
و ن ز ل ت ه ف ي ك ت اب ك أ س م ي ت ب ه ن ف س ك أ و أ ث ر ت ب ه ف ي ع ل م ع ل م ت ه أ ح د ا م ن خ ل ق ك أ و اس ت أ ال غ ي ب ع ن د ك أ ن ت ج ع ل ال ق ر آن ر ب ي ع ق ل ب ي و ن و ر ص د ر ي و ذ ه اب ه م ي و ج ل اء ح ز ن ي Baihaqi -Ibn Mas ūd O Allāh, I am your slave, the son of your slave. My forelock is in Your Hand. Your judgment of me is inescapable. Your trial of me is just. I am invoking You by all the names that You call Yourself, that You have taught to anyone in Your creation, that You have mentioned in Your Book, or that You have kept unknown. Let the Qur ān be delight of my heart, the light of my chest, the reliever of my distress and the banisher of my sadness It comes in the hadīth that the one who makes ihsā of the 99 names of Allāh جل جلاله will go to Jannah 7
The word ihsā has been explained by the scholars of the hadīth as follows: a) According to Imām Nawawi it means one who memorizes it will go to Jannah and will enjoy the high stages of Jannah. b) One who contemplates on these Names while making supplication. c) One who recites it with utmost sincerity and with the intention of taking barakah thereof. d) One who learns it and practices upon it, meaning on reading the name ا لر ز اق (The Sustainer) he has full conviction that it is only Allāh جل جلاله that will provide and no other Being. جل جلاله The word Allāh According to some ulama the word 'Allāh' is the Isme-Dhāt. In other words, it is a personal name of Allāh جل جلاله which is commonly called.جل جلاله Ismul A'zam- The Greatest Name of Allāh This is the view held by Imām Abu Hanīfa, Imām Tahāwi and Imām Rāzi. Someone enquired from Imām Sh'arāni 8
after his demise as to what had happened after جل جلاله he left this worldly abode. He said: Allāh has forgiven only on the basis that I had a full conviction in the word Allāh to be the Ismul A'zam Yet some are of the view that the Ismul A'zam ا ل ق ي و م and others say it is ا ل ل ه م is the word According to the Ahle Bayt (the household of the Rasulullāh (ﷺ and according to one narration of Abdullah bin Mas ūd, the Asmā al Husnā are much more than 99 which are which are commonly known as the 99.جل جلاله names of Allāh According to Abu bakr bin al Arabi there are 1000 names of Allāh,جل جلاله then he said there are still more than that. According to Imām Rāzi and other saints there are 5000 Names of Allāh. 1000 are mentioned in the Qur-ān, Hadīth, Taurah, Injīl and 1000 names are present in the Lowh al Mahfūz, The Preserved Tablet. Those names that are not in compliance with 9
the Qur-ān, Hadith and ijma (consensus) are not allowed to be read, but according to Imām Abu Bakr Bāqilāni, Allāma Alūsi and Imām Rāzi they are allowed to be read provided they carry a appropriate meaning. Allāh جل جلاله should not be invoked by the following names: O The Shy One يا ح ي ى O The Pelterer/Thrower ي ا ر ام ى O The Mocker ي ا م س ت ه ز ى O The Teacher ي ا م ع ل م O The Revealer/Sender ي ا م ن ز ل O The Plotter ي ا م اك ر It is better to call Allāh جل جلاله with the names like ي ا ك ر ي م يا ا لله يا ر ح م ن ي ا ر ح ي م Note: I hope that this work gains popularity and acceptance and becomes a sadaqah Jāriyah (continuous reward) 10
The method of reciting this Qasīdah After performing whudhu sit facing the Qibla and recite Durūd thrice in the beginning thereafter recite the Qasīdah. Recite Durūd in the end thrice (It is recommended to make an intention before reciting to recite for the pleasure of Allāh جل جلاله and to intend reciting for Allāhs pleasure firstly, thereafter for whatever need one has or for the removal of any calamity, illness difficulty etc. After recitation lift ones hands and make dua as well - publisher) Humble servant of Allāh جل جلاله Muhammad Mūsā Ruhāni Al Bāzī (Rahmatullah Alayhi) Teacher of Hadīth & Tafsīr Jamia Ashrafia Lahore, Pakistan 11
