Al Moujeeb

Allah Ta'ala is Al-Moujeeb, which means, it is He who answers the invocation of His servants. He accepts the Dua of those who make Dua. He listens to the grievances of those who are in pain and He helps them in their difficulties. He relieves those who have problems. Allah Ta'ala says: "And when My servants ask you about Me, then (inform them that) I am very near: I answer the invocation of the one who invokes Me when He invokes Me ... " (V186 /S2)

In this verse, Allah Ta'ala has promised to answer the invocation of all those who outstretch their hands to invoke Him. He does not return anyone empty-handed. Thus, we should not hesitate to ask Him when we are in need. The door of Allah Ta'ala is open 24/7. Everyone can ask Allah Ta'ala whenever and wherever he wants. A person who meditates on the attribute of Al-Moujeeb will always have hope. He will never be discouraged in difficult times because he knows that Allah Ta'ala, Al-Moujeeb, is always there to listen to him and to help him. He is not alone, even if he is abandoned in a desert without provisions and support. Allah Ta'ala, Al-Moujeeb, is present and His door is wide open.
