54 AL MATEEN – THE FIRM

FIRMNESS SHOWS AN INTENSITY OF STRENGTH. THE ONE WHO IS STEADFAST AND THE ONE WHO PROVIDES STABILITY EVERYWHERE AND AT ALL TIMES.

 

إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِينُ
Indeed it is Allah who is The Sustainer,,The Possessor of Strength and The Firm. 51:58

Al Mateen connotes Firmness with the means of limitless expansion and extension of strength.

وَأُمْلِي لَهُمْ ۚ إِنَّ كَيْدِي مَتِينٌ
“And I will give them time, , for My Plan is Firm”. 7:183

When things get too hard to bear and we see injustice and inhumanity, know that His Plan is Firm and no one can escape Him.

Al Mateen does not need an army to enforce His authority. He needs no help, nor supporters, nor assistants. His Might is perfect; nothing in the heavens nor on earth can stand in His way. He affects everything yet nothing can affect Him.

REFLECTION

“Indeed, this religion is Mateen, so enter is depth with gentleness.” Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

Standing firm is not synonymous with being stubborn or harsh.

“Show gentleness, for if gentleness is found in anything, it beautifies it and when it is taken out from anything it damages it.” Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)
