Treatment using name ADH-DHAAR

Meaning

Adh-Dhaar (Ad-Darr) means the One who brings distress: He allows hardship and harm to reach whom He wills, as a test or for a greater good.

Understanding the Name

No harm can touch anyone except by Allah’s permission, and no one but Allah can remove it: “And if Allah should touch you with adversity, there is no remover of it except Him” (Al-An‘am 6:17). The scholars teach that this Name should be mentioned together with An-Nafi‘ (the Benefactor), because Allah’s decrees of hardship are always joined with wisdom and mercy.

Trials purify sins, raise ranks and bring the servant back to his Lord. The believer meets them with patience, and turns to the same Lord for relief.

Effects and reflections

The distress that Allah creates for His servants may be for their improvement, or to test their patience. So one should remain patient, and be thankful to Allah even in distress.
