KNOWLEDGE

THE NAME OF ALLAH AL-JAWAAD is confirmed in the Prophetic Sunnah.

WHO IS AL-JAWAAD?

• Al-Jawaad is the One Who gives in abundance. His giving extends to all creatures and He fills them with His favor, generosity, and various types of blessings. The creation is not void of His benevolence for a blink of an eye.
• He is Al-Jawaad in His Being, thus there is no absolute giver except Him, and the giving of every giver is a result of His giving. His love for giving, benevolence, goodness, and bestowing blessings and favors is beyond what crosses the mind of the creation and encircles their imagination. Pardoning is more beloved to Him than revenge, showing mercy is more beloved to Him than punishment, dealing with His favor is more beloved to Him than dealing with justice, and giving is more beloved to Him than prevention.
• He loves to give His slaves and expand His favors upon them. He immerses them in benevolence and giving, completes His blessings upon them and multiplies His favors for them. He makes Himself known to them by His names and attributes and makes Himself beloved to them by His favors and blessings.
• Ibn Al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "And He, far from imperfection is He, loves from His slaves to have hope in Him and ask Him of His favors, for He is The True King, The Most Giving. He is The Most Giving to those ask and the Most Vast to those who give, and the most beloved matter to Al-Jawaad is to have hope in Him and ask Him. [ (50/2) مدارج السالكين]
