Treatment using name Al-Wakeel

Meaning

Al-Wakeel means the Trustee, the Disposer of Affairs: the One to whom matters are entrusted, and who handles them in the best possible way.

Understanding the Name

A wakil is someone you trust to take care of your affairs. People choose human trustees who can fail, forget or betray; Allah is the perfect Trustee. The believers said: Hasbunallahu wa ni‘mal wakil, “Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best Disposer of affairs” (Al ‘Imran 3:173). These were also the words of the Prophet Ibrahim when he was thrown into the fire.

Tawakkul (trust in Allah) means doing what we can, then leaving the result to Al-Wakeel with a calm heart. The Prophet ﷺ said: “Tie your camel, then trust in Allah.”

Effects and reflections

Everyone longs for a trustee, but ignorant people have made things such as the sun, the moon and rivers their trustees. If a person understood the true meaning of Wakeel, he would give up such ignorance.

One should accept Allah as one’s Trustee, hand over all one’s affairs to Him and let go of all worries. This brings happiness in this world and in the Hereafter.

Treatment (Amal)

We should hand over all our difficult tasks, and our own selves, to the Supreme Creator, and call upon Him by this Name. Insha’Allah, we will gain contentment and peace, and our tasks will be completed easily.
