The Existence of God

Attributes of God action without their having participated in it. When I think about it, I feel that they received this unique reward because of their dua with ism-e-azam. I feel as if they must have prayed in these words with tears welling up in their eyes in solitude: “O God, the reward that You have given to others because of Your attribute of being just, give us that reward because of Your being merciful. The reward that You have given to others because of their deeds, give us that reward as a result of our prayers. What You have given to others because of deservation, give us that because of our asking for it. What You have given to others because of their ability, give us that because of our helplessness. What You have given to others because they are strong believers, grant us that because of our being weak in physical strength, because Your messenger has told us that ‘even the weak believer has goodness in him.’” Between God and Man The beautiful names which God has chosen to introduce Himself to man are such as will open the gate of mercy to man. God’s beautiful names tell us what the meeting points between God and man are. It is through these meeting points that man may achieve closeness with God. Then, if the spirit of God’s servant is very great, this enables him in his prayer to God to make use of a great name of God and in so doing make divine closeness
