Tom Facchine – 99 Names of Allah #73 Al-Ghaniyy

			Salam aleikum. Tonight's name is Ella Vani. Allah azza wa jal is Al ani Avani means that Allah
doesn't need anything, it means that he is completely self sufficient. Let's look at ourselves. And
we'll see and be able to understand this name a little bit better. We're very close to the month of
Ramadan, and some of us will be fasting. When we fast, we're not going to eat any food or drink any
water from sun up to sundown. And I don't know about you. But I know that especially in the first
few days, I'm going to feel a little bit tired, and a little bit hungry, and a little bit grouchy,
even when I'm not eating and drinking in the times that I'm usually doing those things. Why does
		

			that happen to you and me? It happens because we need those things. We need food, we need water, and
if we go for too long, without those things, it starts to make us feel really bad. Well, ALLAH
SubhanA horns, Allah doesn't need anything, he doesn't need food, he doesn't need water. He's the
one that gives everything in creation, the food that it needs and the water that it needs, and
everything else. We can also think of it like this, what happens, what would happen if we didn't
have any children,
		

			we would live our lives and whenever we died, there would be no one left to carry on after us. The
whole human race would be done for gone over. So we need children in order to keep everything going.
But Allah subhanho wa Taala is at a height. He's the Ever Living the everlasting. He's never going
to die. And so he doesn't need any children to do his work after he's gone because he never will be
gone. This is part of what makes Allah subhanaw taala elemi the self sufficient and when we realize
that Allah is ello Vani it should make us feel good asking Allah for what we need it because we know
that he has the power to give it to us. And he has so much to give, because he doesn't need anything
		

			for himself. That's all for tonight. instead on what Aiko
