الْمُبْدِئُ
Al-Mubdiʼ — The Originator
إِنَّهُ هُوَ يُبْدِئُ وَيُعِيدُ
Lo! He it is Who produceth, then reproduceth
Surah Al-Burūj (85:13)
ارادہ
Today, I will complete this chapter knowing that Al-Mubdiʾ is already originating the next one.
تدبر
Al-Mubdiʾ: as one year ends, another begins. Al-Mubdiʾ originates beginnings from endings. The completion of this book is not the end of your journey with the Names — it is the beginning of living them. Every day after this journey ends is the start of a deeper one.
آیت پر تدبر
Originates and repeats — yubdiʾu wa yuʿīd. The cycle continues. The journey spirals upward.
دعا
الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ الَّذِي أَحْيَانَا بَعْدَ مَا أَمَاتَنَا وَإِلَيْهِ النُّشُورُ
All praise is due to Allah who gave us life after He caused us to die, and to Him is the resurrection.
Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6312
The du'a upon waking — every morning is a new beginning. Every year-end is a new year's start.
حدیث
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: 'The most beloved of deeds to Allah are those done consistently, even if they are small.'
— Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī 6464, Ṣaḥīḥ Muslim 783
