Transliteration:( Allaahu laaa ilaaha illaa huwa lahul asmaa'ul husnaa )
"Allah—none to be worshipped but He. His are all good names. [8]"
This verse affirms Allah’s Oneness and introduces the concept of His beautiful names (Asmaul Husna).
Allah has many Names because He possesses numerous attributes. Each Name reflects a divine quality, and the diversity of human needs is addressed through the diversity of His Names.
Therefore, every person should invoke Allah using the Name most relevant to their need—for example:
Ya Rahman for mercy,
Ya Shafi for healing,
Ya Razzaq for sustenance.
This reflects not only His perfection, but also His closeness and responsiveness to every human condition.
