Bismillahir Rahmanir Rahim, alhamdulillah, wassalatu wassalam ala rasulillah,
wa ala alihi wa sahbihi, wa man wa
ala.
So, we will just look at a couple
of the blessed names of our Prophet Muhammad,
salallahu alayhi wa alihi wa sahbihi wa sallim.
Thus far, we've only covered the four names
that relate to, that are derived from the
trilateral root Hamid-e-Ahmadu, which is to
praise.
We'll move on now to the fifth name
that is mentioned in this blessed book, Heavenly
Guide to the Beacon of Pure Light.
The name of our Prophet, salallahu alayhi wa
sallam, Ahbid.
And this is translated as Repeller.
According to Muhammad al-Mahdi al-Fasi, the
Prophet, salallahu alayhi wa sallam, was known by
this name in the Torah.
Ibn al-Asakir, in his history of Damascus,
and Ibn Adi in his treaties, al-Kamil,
relate for Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased
with him and his father, in a tradition
of questionable authenticity, that the Prophet, salallahu alayhi
wa sallam, is reported to have said, My
name in the Quran is Muhammad.
My name in the Quran is Muhammad.
And in the Gospel, I am Ahmad.
And in the Torah, I am Ahid.
And in the Torah, I am Ahid.
And I am so called because I repel
the fire of * from my people, salallahu
alayhi wa sallam.
So this is the name of our Prophet,
salallahu alayhi wa sallam, Ahid.
And what a blessing to have a Prophet,
salallahu alayhi wa sallam.
He is so concerned for us, and he
is so eager to make us safe and
to be there for us.
And we know that on the Day of
Judgment, he will be in one of three
places.
Either be at the scales, or he will
be at the bridge over *, the Sirat,
or he will be at his home, one
of these three places.
And he goes back and forth, goes back
and forth to ensure the safety of his
Ummah.
And everything about his teachings, salallahu alayhi wa
sallam, repel us from the fire.
And the more that we follow them, the
more distant we will be from the eternal
blaze.
May Allah Ta'ala protect us and preserve
us.
Then we have his sixth name, which is
Wahid.
And this is a name that translates as
unique.
And he, salallahu alayhi wa sallam, is unique
in his station, rank, person, knowledge, divine secrets,
character, way of life, virtues, intellect, and laws.
And in the fact that no one traveled
as far as he did in their Mi
'raj, or their heavenly ascent.
So everything about our Prophet, salallahu alayhi wa
sallam, is unique.
He is special when it comes to it.
And Allah Ta'ala singled him out.
And he is one of a kind.
And he stands alone in all of these
different ways.
And in the translation, we have some of
it in the commentary.
So in relation to his maqam, which is
his station, and his hal, which is his
state, his knowledge, his secrets, his light, his
character, his way of life, his characteristics, his
virtues, his beauty, his excellence, and so forth
and so on.
His intellect, and all of these other matters.
He stands alone.
He is Waheed.
He is unique.
In relation to all of these things, salallahu
alayhi wa sallam, even in relation to his
creation.
Many of the scholars point to this reality,
that he was the first of everything that
Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, created.
And that there wasn't anyone else before him,
in relation to what Allah, subhanahu wa ta
'ala, created.
So he, salallahu alayhi wa sallam, is Waheed,
unique.
