Al-Karīm The Generous

اقْرَأْ وَرَبُّكَ الْأَكْرَمُ

Read: And thy Lord is the Most Bounteous

Surah Al-ʿAlaq (96:3)

النية

Today, my generosity will overflow, in money, in time, in attention, in forgiveness.

تأمّل

Al-Karīm integrated: let generosity overflow from you. Not measured generosity, not calculated generosity, but the karam of someone who has been so generously treated by Al-Karīm that they cannot help but pass it on. This is the integrated life at its finest: a river of generosity that begins with Him and flows through you to the world.

في هذه الآية

The very first attribute after the command to read: generosity. Knowledge and generosity are siblings.

دعاء

Connecting karam with pardon, the most generous act is to forgive.

حديث

The Prophet (peace be upon him) was the most generous of people.

Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 2308
