If people can see how our being, our life, our body are dependent upon our soul, we may understand a little the dependence of all that exists upon the Ever Self-Existent One. He has created the causes for the existence of each thing until its destined time. He is the one who gives that which is necessary for the existence of everything. His existence depends upon nothing other than Himself, and is exalted over all other existences. Hadrat ‘Ali (pbuh) relates that during the battle of Badr, when he checked on the Messenger of Allah, he would find him prostrating and begging Allahu, ya Hayyu, ya Qayyum for the victory which Allah accorded to him.Īllah is self-existing. ![]() He said that he recited Ahiyyan ya Hayy, Sharahiyyan ya Qayyum.

Many of the wise agree that al-Hayy al-Qayyumm, the Ever-Living, the Self-Existing is the greatest Name, which has the power, when recited by those upon whom it is manifested, even to raise the dead. ![]() So let all your thirsting, knowing, and trusting be to Him Who is the Everlasting Order.įrom: The Meanings of the Names of Our Lord by Shaykh Muhammad Sa’id al-Jamal ar-Rifa’i Head of the Higher Sufi Council in Jerusalem and the Holy Land Teacher at the Dome of the Rock (al-Aqsa)Īllah is the self-existing one upon whom the existence of all else depends. He is the One Who draws out the origins and provisions of all things through the truth of His created Order, and He is the Knower of their capacities. One who repeats this name 99 times will never fall into hard times.Īl-Qayym, the Self-Subsistent Everlasting One Who is perfect in Himself. He is the Almighty and the Sole Provider, Allah sustains the existence of everything. He is the Omnipotent, Creator and Sustainer of all things. He doesn’t depend on anything, nor does He require any support. This name is an attribute of Allah meaning the Self-Subsisting. And he who carried wrongdoing will be indeed a complete failure on that Day. (2:255)Īnd (all) faces shall be humbled before (Allah) the Ever-Living.
