Praise be to Allaah.
Al-Wakeel is al-Hafeez (the Preserver), al-Muheet (the One who
encompasses all things). And it was said that it means al-Shaheed (the
Witness).
He is the Sustainer Who guarantees provision forHis slaves and Who
protects their interests. The reality is that He controls all affairs
independently. The powers of creation and command belong entirely to
Him and no one else possesses anything of them. And it was said that
it means al-Haafiz, Who guarantees to sustain all that He has created.
It was said that it meansal-Kafeel (the Guarantor), and He is thebest
Guarantor to provide for us.
It was said that it meansal-Kaafi (the Sufficient), and He is the
most Sufficient.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"and they said: 'Allaah (Alone) is Sufficient for us, and He is the
Best Disposer of affairs (for us)." [Aal 'Imraan 3:173]
-- meaning, He is sufficient for us. Al-Wakeel in Arabic means the one
who is entrusted to run the affairs of the one who entrusted them to
him. The believers referred toin this aayah had entrusted their
affairs toAllaah and put their trustin Him, so He described Himself as
fulfilling that trust and them as havingput their trust in Him, so He
said, the Best Disposer of affairs for them. When a person puts his
trust in his Lord, he submits to His Lordship and becomes a true slave
of Him. Allaah has complete authority, meaning that al-Wakeel has full
knowledge of that which has been entrusted to Him and He encompasses
all its details; He has full powerto deal with it and protect that
which has been entrusted to Him, by His wisdom and His knowledge of
how to deal with it in the most suitable manner.
Allaah is the One Who is above all shortcomings in any of His
attributes; He is the Disposer of all affairs. This indicates that His
knowledge encompasses all things and that He has perfect power to
control all affairs with perfect wisdom, for He is the Best Disposer
of Affairs.,Names and Attributes of Allah, - Dought clear -
