Al-Qahhar<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n

(The All-Prevailing One)<\/p>\n

The Dominantor, The Irrestible, The Subduer<\/p>\n

Allah \u0633\u064f\u0628\u0652\u062d\u064e\u0670\u0646\u064e\u0647\u064f\u06e5 \u0648\u064e\u062a\u064e\u0639\u064e\u0670\u0644\u064e\u0649\u0670 is Al-Qahhar (in Arabic: \u0671\u0644\u0652\u0642\u064e\u0647\u064e\u0651\u0627\u0631\u064f), meaning the one who prevails over all creation. The universe runs according to the laws laid down by Allah \u0633\u064f\u0628\u0652\u062d\u064e\u0670\u0646\u064e\u0647\u064f\u06e5 \u0648\u064e\u062a\u064e\u0639\u064e\u0670\u0644\u064e\u0649\u0670. He is dominant, the master of all, and is victorious over all opposition. He has the perfect Power and is not unable over anything.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Mentions of Al-Qahhar:
\nFrom Quran & Hadith<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

Arabic Root:<\/strong>
\nFrom the root qaf-ha-ra (\u0642 \u0647 \u0631), which has the following classical Arabic connotations: to overcome, conquer to overpower, master to dominate over, prevail to subdue, subjugate, to compel against one\u2019s wishes.<\/p>\n

The names Al-Qahhar and Al-Qahir:<\/strong>
\nThere are two names, Al-Qahir, and Al-Qahhar. The name Al-Qahir is the base form meaning “the irresistible.” On the other hand, Al-Qahhar is more emphatic, the one who is all over-powering, all-prevailing. Al-Qahir is mentioned twice in the Qur’an in Surah al-An’am verse 18 and verse 61. while Al-Qahhar is used more intensively, mentioned a total of 6 times.<\/p>\n

This name informs us that Allah \u0633\u064f\u0628\u0652\u062d\u064e\u0670\u0646\u064e\u0647\u064f\u06e5 \u0648\u064e\u062a\u064e\u0639\u064e\u0670\u0644\u064e\u0649\u0670 strength is unmatched. He has absolute sovereignty over all His creation. He is the dominator. Whoever is an enemy or challenges Allah \u0633\u064f\u0628\u0652\u062d\u064e\u0670\u0646\u064e\u0647\u064f\u06e5 \u0648\u064e\u062a\u064e\u0639\u064e\u0670\u0644\u064e\u0649\u0670 stands no chance. He can humiliate them with ease. Things are measured on the scale of eternity, so if a person opposes Allah \u0633\u064f\u0628\u0652\u062d\u064e\u0670\u0646\u064e\u0647\u064f\u06e5 \u0648\u064e\u062a\u064e\u0639\u064e\u0670\u0644\u064e\u0649\u0670 they will lose inevitably. There isn’t a single creation that isn’t subjected to Allah’s will or could escape it.<\/p>\n

The pairing of Al-Qahhar with Al-Wahid:<\/strong>
\nIn the Qur’an, this name is also always coupled with the name Al-Wahid<\/a>, meaning “The One.” A king in this world can be powerful, but it’s not because he possesses intrinsic power. It often comes with the buy-in of the state citizens or having a large army. If they were to turn on him, he would have no power. So this pairing of names shows the difference, He is one with complete dominion over all. We again see how the holistic approach of studying the names in their pairs brings light to a new meaning that we otherwise might’ve missed.<\/p>\n
