A Life with the Divine: 25 Names of Allah and their everyday expressions in life
Tradesmen look at buildings differently, depending on their The carpenter casts an eye on the woodwork, the bricklayer on the brickwork and the painter on the walls and ceilings. Similarly, the greater a person's perception of Allāh’s names, the greater their alertness and understanding of life. Nothing passes them by, without thought and contemplation.
When they see a display of mercy, they automatically and very naturally reflect on the names of Allah; Al-Rahīm” (The Most Merciful), Al-Ra’ūf (The Pitying), Al-Wadūd (The Affectionate). When they sense might and awe, they are overcome with the names “Al-Jabbār” (The Compeller), “Al-Muntaqim” (The Avenger) and “Al-Qahhār” (The Subduer). Eventually, they reach a station where every scene that unfolds, any sin which presents itself or any opportunity that drifts by, becomes a trigger for perusal and the remembrance of Allāh, the achievement of which is precisely the objective of this book.

Amazing Food for the Soul
One of the best books I have ever read. This book has really helped me to know my Rabb more and has really helped me to live with his names. Giving it 5 stars is not enough, I wished I could give it more. I wish the author would make another book with more beautiful names of Allah swt. May Allah swt reward the author for his efforts and grant him goodness in this world and the akhirah.
