From the teachings of Hazrat Maulana Shah Abdur Raheem Sahab Dard (Rahmatullah Alaih)
Meaning
Al-Khaafidh means the Abaser, the One who lowers: He brings down the arrogant and the oppressors, and lowers whomever He wills according to His justice.
Understanding the Name
The root kh-f-ḍ means to lower. This Name is paired with Ar-Raafi (the Exalter). The Qur’an describes the Day of Judgement as an event “bringing down, raising up” (Al-Waqi‘ah 56:3): on that Day many who were high in this world will be lowered, and many who were humble will be raised.
Reflecting on Al-Khaafidh protects the believer from pride. Whatever position he has, he knows that Allah can lower him in a moment, so he stays humble and grateful.
Effects and reflections
Allah raises His creatures from a lower rank to a higher one, and because of their sins He may also lower them to nothing. A person who lives in luxury may be brought low because of his bad deeds, while a poor person may be saved from disgrace because of his good deeds.
Treatment (Amal)
Whoever recites “Yā Khāfiḍ” 1,493 times after every prayer will remain safe from difficulties.
By fasting for four days and reciting “Yā Khāfiḍ” after Maghrib on the fourth day, one will, by Allah’s will, succeed and remain safe from enemies.
