PODSERIES: THE BEAUTIFUL NAMES OF ALLAH, THE EXALTED – PART 31 OF 31

The next divine name is Al Warith, which means the Inheritor. Allah, the Exalted, will inherit everything on Earth and all those upon it as in reality everything was created and belongs to none other than Him.

A muslim who understands this divine name will not attach to anything in the material world and instead use everything they have been granted in order to gain the proximity of Allah, the Exalted by fulfilling His commands, refraining from His prohibitions and by facing destiny with patience. If muslims use the things they possess according to their desires such as their wealth they will become a burden for them in both worlds and they will ultimately lose the things during their life or when they die. But if they use them in the correct way they will become a blessing for them in both worlds.

A muslim must act on this divine name by striving to become an inheritor of the Holy Prophets, peace be upon them, which is achieved by learning and acting on the knowledge found within Islam. This has been advised in a Hadith found in Sunan Ibn Majah, number 223. This inheritance will endure as it is connected to Allah, the Exalted, whereas all worldly inheritance will perish.

The next divine name is As Sabur, which means the Patient. Allah, the Exalted, is patient as He does not hasten punishment to those who deserve it. Instead, He continues to provide them with countless blessings and opportunities to change for the better.

A muslim who understands this divine name will take the opportunities provided by Allah, the Exalted, to hasten towards sincere repentance before punishment descends. Sincere repentance involves feeling remorse, seeking forgiveness from Allah, the Exalted, and if necessary from people, sincerely promising to refrain from the same or similar sin again and making up for any rights which have been violated in respect to Allah, the Exalted, and people.

A muslim must act on this divine name by being patient in all matters. A muslim must remember that Allah, the Exalted, only chooses what is best for His servants even if they do not observe the wisdom behind it. Chapter 2 Al Baqarah, verse 216:

“…But perhaps you hate a thing and it is good for you; and perhaps you love a thing and it is bad for you. And Allah knows, while you know not.”

Therefore, the only thing a muslim needs to do is demonstrate the correct behavior in every situation so that they gain much reward. For example, patience during times of difficulties and gratitude during times of ease. This has been advised in a Hadith found in Sahih Muslim, number 7500.
