اللَّهُ الصَّمَدُ
Allah is the Self Sufficient. 112:2
As Samad is in essence is the final destination, the ultimate goal. The One Whom we seek in times of need. He is the completeness of all potentials.
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ بِأَنِّي أَشْهَدُ أَنَّكَ أَنْتَ اللَّهُ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ أَنْتَ الأَحَدُ الصَّمَدُ الَّذِي لَمْ يَلِدْ وَلَمْ يُولَدْ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ كُفُوًا أَحَدٌ
“O Allah, indeed, I ask you by my testifying that You are Allah, there is none worthy of worship except You, the One, As-Samad, the one who does not give birth nor was given birth to , and there is none who is like Him.”
When the Prophet (pbuh) heard a person calling Divinity with the name As Samad in the dua he said: “By the One in Whose Hand is my soul, he has asked Allah by His Greatest Name (As Samad) , the one which if He is called upon by it, He responds, and when He is asked by it, He gives.”
Water provides everything fishes need to survive. If the fish needs anything it must seek it from the water. Similarly As Samad satisfies all needs and it is He that we plead to in times of need.
The Arabs describe a household of Samad where people go in the hope of fulfilling their worldly needs.
Recite Yaa Samad frequently for fulfilment of needs and to become independent.
