*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -* - Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-

Is it permissible to name his daughter Tabaarak?.

What is the ruling on using the name Tabaarak?.
Praise be to Allaah.
It seems that it is not permissible to give the name Tabaarak to any
created being, because it is an attribute that belongs only to Allaah,
may He be exalted.
Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
As for His attribute Tabaarak, it is His alone, as He has attributed
it to Himself. End quote.
Badaa'i' al-Fawaa'id (2/185).
Shaykh Muhammad al-Ameen al-Shanqeeti said, after quoting opinions
about the meaning of Tabaarak:
It seems that the meaning of Tabaarak from a linguistic point ofview
is that it is derived from the word barakah (blessing), as was stated
by Ibn Jareer al-Tabari. Based on that, the meaning of Tabaarak is an
abundance of blessings and goodness from Him, which implies His
greatness and holiness, being far removed from anything that does not
befit His perfection and majesty, because the One from Whom blessing
and goodness come and whobestows provision uponpeople is the only One
Who is great and deserves to be worshipped alone. The one from whom no
blessing or goodness or provision comes, such as the idols and all
those who are worshipped instead of Allaah cannot be rightfully
worshippedand worshipping them iskufr which will doom a person to Hell
for eternity.
The word Tabaraak appears in the past tenseand it is not possible to
form a present tense or verbal noun or active participle etc from it.
It isone of the attributes which belong only to Allaah, so it cannot
be said of anyone else, which is different from the view of al-Asma'i.
The word Tabaarak is used by the Arabs to refer only to Allaah and
this is known in their language. End quote.
Adwa' al-Bayaan (6/262, 263).
Shaykh 'Abd al-'Azeez al-Salmaan (may Allaah have mercy on him) said:
Barakah is an attribute that is ascribed to Him asmercy and might are
ascribed to Him, and the verb derived from it is Tabaarak, hence it
cannot be said of anyone other than Him, may He be glorified and
exalted. For He is al-Mubaarik (the giver ofblessing) and His slave
and Messenger is al-Mubaarak (the one who is blessed), as the Messiah
said: "And He has made me blessed" [Maryam 19:31]. The one whom Allaah
blesses is blessed (mubaarak), but as an attribute it applies only to
Him, as He has said of Himself: "Blessed is Allaah, the Lord of the
'Aalameen (mankind, jinn and all that exists)" [al-A'raaf 7:54]. End
quote.
Al-Kawaashif al-Jalliyyah Sharh al-'Aqeedah al-Waasitiyyah (p. 283).
Based on this, it is not permissible to ascribe this attribute to
anyone except Allaah, may He beexalted, because it belongs only to
Him.
And Allaah knows best.

He wants to know the names and attributes of Allaah that are mentioned in the Qur’aan and Sunnah.

Praise be to Allaah, I have memorized 98 of the names of Allaah, and I
hope that you can believe what you are reading, because I cannot find
more than 98 names in the dhikrs for morning and evening. I asked some
colleagues at work whose knowledge of Islam I trust, and I could not
get a definitive answer from them. I hope that you could do me the
honour of sending to me all the beautiful names of Allaah, and that
you can tell me of the attributes of Allaah which are not regarded as
being among those names, so that I can benefit others and dispel this
widespread mistake.
Praise be to Allaah.
Knowledge of the namesand attributes of Allaah is of major importance
in the life of the Muslim. Through them the Muslim may come to know
about his Creator, may He be exalted, and through this knowledge he
may attain all aspects of Tawheed.
In the answer to question no. 4043 we have explained the importance of
knowing the names of Allaah, mayHe be exalted. Please refer to this
question.
Secondly:
The names of Allaah are not limited to a specific number. There is a
saheeh report from which some people understand that Allaah has only
ninety-nine names. This report was narrated bu al-Bukhaari (2736) and
Muslim (2677) from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be pleased with him), and
says that the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him) said: "Allaah has ninety-nine names, one hundred less one.
Whoever learns them will enter Paradise."
Al-Nawawi (may Allaah have mercy on him) narrated that the scholars
were unanimously agreed that the names of Allaah are not limited to
this number. In the answer to question no. 41003 wehave quoted the
evidence that they cannot be limited to this number, as well as the
comments of the scholars refuting those who say that the names of
Allaah are limited to this number.
In the answer to question no. 48964 you will find a detailed
discussion of the guidelines concerning the names that may correctly
be applied to Allaah, may He be exalted.
The hadeeth which is narrated by al-Tirmidhi, listing these
ninety-nine names is a da'eef (weak)hadeeth. It was classed as da'eef
by Imam al-Tirmidhi (may Allaah have mercy on him) himself and others.
Al-Tirmidhi (may Allaah have mercy on him) said,after narrating the hadeeth:
This is a ghareeb hadeeth (i.e., it is weak, as is the apparent
meaning of his words here). It was narrated to us by more than one
person from Safwaan ibn Saalih, but we only know of it through Safwaan
ibn Saalih, and he is thiqah (trustworthy) according to the scholars
of hadeeth. This hadeeth was also narrated by more than one person
from Abu Hurayrah, fromthe Prophet , but in many reports we do not
know of any saheeh isnaad mentioning the names except this hadeeth.
Adam ibn Abi Iyaas narrated this hadeeth with another isnaad from Abu
Hurayrah from the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him),
in which he mentioned the names of Allaah, but its isnaad is not
saheeh.
Sunan al-Tirmidhi, 5/530– 532
The hadeeth was also classed as da'eef by al-Haafiz ibn Hajr in
al-Talkhees al-Habeer, 4/172. He also narrated that Ibn Hazm,
al-Bayhaqi and others classed it as da'eef.
And it was classed as da'eef by Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may
Allaah have mercy on him) in Majmoo' al-Fataawa, 22/482.
Many scholars have striven to derive the names of Allaah from
theQur'aan and Sunnah. One of these scholars is Shaykh Muhammad ibn
Saalih al-'Uthaymeen, in his book al-Qawaa'id al-Muthla fi Sifaat
Illaahi wa Asmaa'ihi'l-Husna. In this book he lists the names of
Allaah in the Qur'aan and Sunnah according to his findings. You can
find these names in his book by clicking on the following link:
http://www.ibnothaimeen.com/all/books/article_16821.shtml
Thirdly:
With regard to the attributes of Allaah, may He be exalted, they are
more than can be listed here. In the answer to question no. 39803 we
have discussed this matter in more detail. Please refer to this
question.
In the book mentioned above, Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen (may Allaah have
mercy on him) has discussed some useful principles concerning the
attributes of Allaah, may He be exalted, which you will find by
clicking on the followinglink:
http://www.ibnothaimeen.com/all/books/article_16822.shtml
With regard to striving to learn them according to what is narrated in
the Qur'aan and Sunnah,some scholars have striven to list the
attributes that are mentioned in the Qur'aan and Sunnah. One of the
best books that have been written on this topic is the book of Shaykh
'Alawi ibn 'Abd al-Qaadir al-Saqqaaf: Sifaat Allaah 'azza wa jall
al-Waaridahfi'l-Kitaab wa'l-Sunnah. You can read this book on his site

And Allaah knows best.

Affirming that Allaah does descend (to the lowest heaven).

the night passes by, Allahdescends to the lowest heaven and says: 'No
one asks more about my servants thatn myself. Who is asking me, so I
can give to him? Who is calling uon me, so I can answer him? who is
seeking my forgiveness, so I can forgive him?'". I got two questions
aboutthis hadith.
How sahee ( or correct ) is this hadith.
And second, what meaning is this hadith?.
Praise be to Allaah.
Your question covers two matters:
1 – The extent to which this hadeeth is saheeh.
This hadeeth is a saheeh hadeeth which is provenin the soundest two
books after the Book of Allaah. It was narrated by al-Bukhaari in his
Saheeh (1145) and by Muslim (1261) from Abu Hurayrah (may Allaah be
pleased with him), that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him) said: "The Lord descends every night to the lowest heaven
when one-third of the night remains andsays: 'Who will call upon Me,
that I may answer Him? Who will ask of Me,that I may give him? Who
will seek My forgiveness, that I may forgive him?'"
This hadeeth was narrated from the Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) by approximately twenty-eight of the Sahaabah (may
Allaah be pleased with them) and the Ahl al-Sunnah are unanimously
agreed that it is to be accepted.
2 – What is meant by the descent of Allaah – may He be exalted – to
the lowest heaven:
It should be noted that the descent of the Lord –may He be exalted –
to the lowest heaven is oneof the actions that are attributed to Him
and has to do with His will and wisdom. It is descending in a real
sense, in a manner that befits His majesty and might. Allaah descends
however He wills, whenever He wills. Glory be to Him, there is nothing
like unto Him and He is the All-Hearing,All-Seeing. It is not
permissible to distort themeaning of the hadeeth by saying that what
is meant is that His command or mercy descends, or that one of His
angels descends. Thisis false for several reasons:
(i) This misinterpretation goes against the apparent
meaning of the hadeeth.The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him) attributed descent or the act of descending to Allaah, and
the basic principle isthat a thing is attributedto the one who does
it, so if it is attributed to someone else, that is a distortion that
goes against this basic principle. We know that the Messenger (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) is the mostknowledgeable of all
people about Allaah, andthat he (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) is the most eloquent of mankind and the most truthful in what he
says. There are no lies in his speech and it is impossible for him to
attribute something to Allaah that is not one of His names or
attributes or actions or rulings. Allaah says (interpretation of the
meaning):
"And if he (Muhammad) had forged a false saying concerning Us (Allaah),
45. We surely would have seized him by his right hand (or with power and might),
46. And then We certainly would have cutoff his life artery (aorta)"
[al-Haaqqah 69:44-46]
Moreover the only intention of the Prophet (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him) wasto guide mankind, so if he said, "Our Lord
descends" and someone else says something that runs contrary to the
apparent meaning of these words, such as saying that His
commanddescends, then we say: Do you have more knowledge about Allaah
than the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him)? The Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said,
"Our Lord descends" but you say His command descends. Or are you more
sincere towards the ummah than he was,since he (allegedly) concealed
what he was supposed to tell them and told them something different.
Undoubtedly the person who tells the people onething but means
something else is not sincere towards them. Ordo you think that you
are more eloquent than the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of
Allaah be upon him)?! Undoubtedly such a misinterpretation implies
that one is accusing the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be
upon him) of some kind of shortcoming that a Muslim can never accept
on the part of the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah
be upon him).
(ii) The descent ofHis command and mercy is not
restricted to this part of the night, rather His command and mercy
descend all the time. If it is said that what is meant is a specific
command or specific mercy which does not happen all the time, the
answer to that is that if we assume that this interpretation is
correct, then the hadeeth indicates that where the descent of this
thing ends is in the lowest heaven, so what benefit can it be to us if
mercy descend to the lowest heaven without reaching us? Why would the
Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) even tell us about
it?
(iii) The hadeeth indicates that the One Who descends says:
"Who will call upon Me, that I may answer Him? Who will ask of Me,
that Imay give him? Who will seek My forgiveness, thatI may forgive
him?" No one can say that except Allaah, may He be exalted.
See: Majmoo' Fataawa wa Rasaa'il al-Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih
al-'Uthaymeen, 1/203-210.

Names and Attributes of Allah, - Can you revive a dead Person?

One of the basic principles of sound belief ('aqeedah) is belief in
Allaah and that He is the only One Who can give life and cause death.
The one who claims that someone other than Allaah is able to give life
and cause death is a kaafir. Even the mushrikeen in their Jaahiliyyah
(ignorance) did not believe such a thing of their idols and gods.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"How can you disbelieve in Allaah? Seeing that you were dead and He
gave you life. Then He will give you death, thenagain will bring you
to life (on the Day of Resurrection) and then unto Him you will
return"
[al-Baqarah 2:28]
"and it is He Who gives life to the dead, and it is He Who is Able to
do all things"
[al-Hajj 22:6]
"It is He, Who gave you life, and then will cause you to die, and will
again give you life (on the Day of Resurrection).Verily, man is indeed
an ingrate"
[al-Hajj 22:66]
Allaah has stated that other so-called gods are incapable of creating,
granting provision, giving life or causing death.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"Allaah is He Who created you, then provided food for you, then will
cause you to die, then (again) He will give you life (on the Day of
Resurrection). Is thereany of your (so-called) partners (of Allaah)
that do anything of that? Glory be to Him! And Exalted be He above all
that (evil) they associate (with Him)"
[al-Room 30:40]
Shaykh Muhammad al-Ameen al-Shanqeeti said:
The words of Allaah in this verse - "Is there any of your (so-called)
partners (of Allaah) that do anything of that? Glory be to Him! And
Exalted be He above all that (evil) they associate (with Him)" -
clearly indicate that not one of those partners was able to do
anything of that which is mentioned in the verse, including giving
life, which is referred to in the words "created you", causing death,
which is referred to in the words "will cause you to die", and
resurrecting, which is referred to in the words "then (again) He will
give you life". Allaah states that they do not have the power of
resurrection in the words (interpretation of the meaning):
"Or have they taken (for worship) aalihah (gods) from the earth who
raisethe dead?"
[al-Anbiya' 21:21]
Allaah states that they donot have the power of giving life or
resurrecting, as He says (interpretation of the meaning):
"Say: 'Is there of your (Allaah's so-called) partners one that
originates the creation and then repeats it?' Say:'Allaah originates
the creation and then He repeats it. Then how are you deluded away
(fromthe truth)?'"
[Yoonus 10:34]
And He states that He alone is the One in Whose hand are death and
life, in many verses, such as the following (interpretation of the
meaning):
"And no person can ever die except by Allaah's Leave and at an appointed term"
[Aal 'Imraan 3:145]
"And Allaah grants respite to none when hisappointed time (death) comes"
[al-Munaafiqoon 63:11]
"Verily, the term of Allaah when it comes, cannot be delayed"
[Nooh 71:4]
"How can you disbelieve in Allaah? Seeing that you were dead and He
gave you life. Then He will give you death, thenagain will bring you
to life (on the Day of Resurrection) and then unto Him you will
return"
[al-Baqarah 2:28]
"They will say: 'Our Lord! You have made us to die twice (i.e. we were
deadin the loins of our fathers and dead after our life in this
world), and You have given us life twice (i.e. life when we were born
and life when we are resurrected)!'"
[Ghaafir 40:11]
And there are other similar verses.
What we have mentioned of how theseverses explain one another is
something that no Muslim has any excuse for not knowing. End quote.
Adwa' al-Bayaan (6/271).
One of the signs or miracles of 'Eesa ibn Maryam (peace be upon him)
was that he was able to bring the dead back to life by Allaah's Leave;
'Eesa (peace be upon him) would not have been able to do that if his
Lord had not willed it.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"And will make him ['Eesa (Jesus)] a Messenger to the Children of
Israel (saying): 'I have come to you with a sign from your Lord, that
I design for you out of clay, a figure like that of a bird,and breathe
into it, and it becomes a bird by Allaah's Leave; and I healhim who
was born blind,and the leper, and I bring the dead to life by Allaah's
Leave'"
[Aal 'Imraan 3:49]
"(Remember) when Allaah will say (on the Day of Resurrection). 'O
'Eesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Remember My Favour to you and to
your mother when I supported you with Rooh-ul-Qudus [Jibreel
(Gabriel)] so thatyou spoke to the people in the cradle and in
maturity; and when I taught you writing, Al-Hikmah (the power
ofunderstanding), the Tawraat (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel); and
when you made out of the clay, a figure like that of a bird, by My
Permission, and you breathed into it, and it became a bird by My
Permission, and you healed those born blind, and the lepers by My
Permission, and when you brought forth the dead by My Permission'"
[al-Maa'idah 5:110]
As for what his opponent said to Ibraaheem (peace be upon him) about
being able to give life and cause death, this is among the most
foolish and falsest of claims. Hence when Ibraaheem (peace be upon
him) debated with him he defeated that kaafir in argument and proved
the falseness of his claim.
Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
"Have you not looked at him who disputed with Ibraaheem (Abraham)
about his Lord (Allaah), because Allaah had given him the kingdom?
When Ibraaheem (Abraham) said (to him): 'My Lord (Allaah) is He Who
gives life and causes death.' He said, 'I give life and cause death.'
Ibraaheem (Abraham) said, 'Verily, Allaah brings the sun from the
east; then bringit you from the west.' So the disbeliever was utterly
defeated. And Allaah guides not the people, who are Zaalimoon
(wrongdoers)"
[al-Baqarah 2:258]
No human being can claim that he is able to bring the dead back to
life. If anyone claims that, then here are the Messengers, Prophets
and great men who died- let him bring them back to life if his claim
is true!
And Allaah knows best.
