Treatment using name Az-Zaahir

Meaning

Az-Zaahir means the Manifest, the Evident: the One whose existence is clear through His signs, and who is above all things.

Understanding the Name

Allah is hidden from our eyes, yet nothing is more evident than Him, because every created thing points to Him. He is Az-Zaahir in His signs and Al-Baatin in His essence (Al-Hadid 57:3). The Prophet ﷺ said: “You are the Manifest, there is nothing above You” (Sahih Muslim).

For the seeker, this Name opens the eye of the heart to see the signs of Allah everywhere: in nature, in events and within himself.

Effects and reflections

To be truly manifest is a quality of Almighty Allah, not of His creatures. All of Allah’s creation depends on Him for its light (noor).
