Treatment using name Al-Qayyum

Meaning

Al-Qayyum means the Self-Subsisting, the Sustainer: the One who exists by Himself, needing nothing, and who holds up and maintains the entire universe.

Understanding the Name

Everything depends on Al-Qayyum to continue existing for even one moment, while He depends on nothing. This Name comes together with Al-Hayy in Ayat al-Kursi (Al-Baqarah 2:255), in Al ‘Imran 3:2 and in Ta-Ha 20:111: “And faces will be humbled before the Ever-Living, the Sustainer.” Many scholars have said that these two Names together may be the Greatest Name (Ism-e-A‘zam).

Whoever relies on Al-Qayyum finds stability: the One who holds the heavens in place can hold his life together.

Effects and reflections

We know that the entire universe exists only because of Allah, who holds everything. Everything continues to exist because of Allah.
