![]() Thus, the āyah begins by establishing the greatest truth: that Allah is the sole being that deserves to be worshipped. ![]() ‘Allah’ refers to the One who is adored and worshipped.According to many scholars, ‘Allah’ is the Greatest Name of Allah, and is the most frequently mentioned Name in the Qur’ān, appearing over 2,500 times. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “ The evil one spoke the truth.” (Ḥākim 2108) Brief Commentary Ubayy said: “The following morning, I went to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and told him about what had happened. And if you read it in the evening, you will be protected from us till the morning.” If you read it in the morning, you will be protected from us till the evening. Ubayy asked him, “What caused you to do what you did?” He replied, “We heard that you are a man who loves charity, and we came to take our share from your food.’” Ubayy asked him, “ What will protect us from you?” He replied, “ Reading Āyah al-Kursī from Sūrah al-Baqarah. The jinn know that there is no one amongst them who is stronger than me.” ![]() He said, “This is how the jinn are created. Ubayy then asked him, “What are you, a jinnī or a human?” He replied, “A jinnī.” So he said to him, “Show me your hand.” So he showed him his hand, and it looked like a dog’s paw with dog’s fur. Ubayy greeted him and he returned his greeting. So he kept guard on it one night and saw a creature that resembled an adolescent boy. He found that its quantity was decreasing. Kaʿb (raḍiy Allāhu ʿanhu) reported that he had a vessel in which he kept dates. Allāhu lā ilāha illā Huwa-l-Ḥayyu-l-Qayyūm, lā ta’khudhuhū sinatuw-wa lā nawm, lahū mā fi-s-samāwāti wa mā fi-l-arḍ, man dhā’lladhī yashfaʿu ʿindahū illā bi-idhnih, yaʿlamu mā bayna aydīhim wa mā khalfahum, wa lā yuḥīṭūna bi-shay’im-min ʿilmihī illā bi-mā shā’, wasiʿa kursiyyuhu-s-samāwāti wa-l-arḍ, wa lā ya’ūduhū ḥifẓuhumā wa Huwa-l-ʿAlliyu-l-ʿAẓīm. (2:255) TransliterationĪʿūdhu bi-llāhi mina-sh-Shayṭāni-r-rajīm. And He is the Most High, the Magnificent. His Kursī extends over the heavens and the earth, and their preservation does not tire Him. Who is it that can intercede with Him except with His permission? He knows what is before them and what will be after them, and they encompass not a thing of His knowledge except for what He wills. To Him Alone belongs whatever is in the heavens and whatever is on the earth. Neither drowsiness overtakes Him nor sleep. I seek the protection of Allah from the accursed Shayṭān.Īllah, there is no god worthy of worship but He, the Ever Living, The Sustainer of all.
