The document discusses the name Al-Kareem, one of the 99 names of Allah. It provides meanings of the root word, including being generous, giving, beneficent, and being highly esteemed. Examples are given of how Allah exemplifies this name through forgiving sins, providing variety in food and nature, and making Paradise an ultimate manifestation of generosity beyond our imagination. Quranic verses are cited that reference Allah's generosity.

3. Kareem is one of the 99 names of Allah SWT.
It is derived from root “Kaaf-Raa-Meem”
This root appears 47 times in Quran with 8 derivatives
such as Al-Akram [most generous], Al- Akram [honor],
Kareemun [noble], Kiraaman [dignified ones] Al-
Mukrameen [the honored ones]
The two main meanings of this root word are:
i. to be generous, giving, and beneficent
ii. to be highly esteemed, honored and valued

4. Imam al-Ghazali, in his
explanation of Allah’s Names,
stated that al-Kareem is “one
who forgives if he has the
power, follows through when he
promises, and exceeds the limits
one could hope for when he
gives; nor is he concerned with
how much he gives or to
whom.”
Maqayees al-lugha, that karam
can refer to something that
intrinsically has honor in and of
and itself.

5. Related to other Names
Al-Kareem

6. The name Al-Kareem is strongly related to various other
Asmaa was-Sifaat of Allah ‘azza wajal.
Al-Kareem is related to Al-Wahhaab (The Giver) and Ar-
Razzaaq (The Provider) in the sense that
He initiates favors to His slaves, beyond what we deserve
Brought us into existence even though He was not obliged to
do so.
Gives us the whole world, as He tells us: “It is He Who created
for you all that is in the earth”. Quran 2: 29
The Quran, is not only an instruction but also a cure.
Our prayers are not only rituals, but also treasure chests of
multiple rewards.
Our food is not just one kind, but an amazing variety of tastes,
structures and flavors; this is the giving of Al-Kareem!

7. Al-Kareem is related to Al-‘Afuw (The Pardoner)
because
When you sin and forget about it, Allah deals
with you generously and makes you live
comfortably.
He who covers your sins and when you turn to
Him out of His amazing generosity.
 He doesn’t just forgive but completely erases
your bad deeds and on top of this turns them into
good deeds.
He is At-Tawwaab. What a generous Lord!

8. Al-Kareem is also related to Al-Haleem (the Forebearing)
Whenever He gives He gives most generously
When He is disobeyed, He forgives most forbearingly
He has the most generous and gracious way of forgiving.
Al-Kareem is related in meaning to Al-Wadood (The
Loving);
We being worthy of His divine love is truly a generosity
Al-Kareem says: “Verily, those who believe and work deeds
of righteousness: the Most Gracious shall bestow love
upon them” [Quran, 19: 96]

9. Allah (SWT) in His essence is Kareem because of His
perfection, His Oneness and His uniqueness. He is also
Kareem in His dealings with His creation.
As Al-Ghazali’s definition shows, Allah (SWT) always goes
over and beyond what is needed, when He does not have
to. He forgives, He follows through and He gives. Why?
Because He is ultimately al-Kareem.
We can illustrate with a few examples
o Prayers
o Food
o Forgiveness
o Paradise

10. Prayers are fascinating. We were created to worship. It
includes many different acts, and it would be sufficient that
it is a command from Allah (swt). Yet Allah (swt) provides
so many spiritual cures in prayers, and He makes it
something that is beloved in the heart of the believers.
When we pray, the veil between us and Allah (swt) is
lifted, as the Prophet (PBUH) tells us:
“Allah faces the servant during prayer as long as he
does not turn away.” (Abu Dawud)
We are forgiven for sins, as we are told:
“When a slave stands and prays, all his sins are
brought and placed on his head and shoulders. Every
time he bows or prostrates, some of them fall from
him.” (Bayhaqi)

11. We are rewarded even when we are waiting for
prayer, as the Prophet said:
“A person is considered in prayer as long as he is
waiting for the prayer.” (Bukhari, Muslim)
Finally we are given the gift of du`a’ (supplication)
when we are closest to Allah (SWT), in
sujood (prostration).
The Prophet tells us: “The closest that a servant is
to his Lord is when he is in prostration.” (Muslim)
All of this to exemplify this attribute of Allah (SWT) He
gives and gives, for such a simple act in order to bring
us closer.

13. Allah has created a variety of
eatables for us. Our food is not just
of one kind, but an amazing variety
of tastes, structures and flavors;
this is the giving of Al-Kareem!

14. Even in Allah’s forgiveness of our sins, His
Generosity is manifest. When we spoke about
Allah at-Tawwaab, we recounted how Allah (swt)
not only cancels your sin, but that sin may even be
turned into a good deed in your books. Yet Allah’s
generosity knows no bounds.
Sheikh Ratib an-Nabulsi, in explaining Allah’s
Name al-Kareem, quotes the following:
“If a believer returns to Allah with true sincere
repentance, Allah makes him, the angels and
the whole world, forget his sins and
misdeeds.”

16. Paradise is the ultimate manifestation of Allah’s generosity.
It will removes the memory of whatever we were afflicted
with in the world. It is a place that we cannot even imagine
where everyone will have what he wishes, and everyday is
more fascinating than the previous.
In Surah Yaseen Allah explains the people of Jannah as

“O mankind, what has deceived you concerning your Lord,

Maulana Modudi in explanation of this ayah says
“In the first place, the bounty and favor of your Beneficent Sustainer required that
you should have acknowledged his bounties and become an obedient servant and
should have felt shy of disobeying Him, but you were deluded into thinking that you
have become whatever you are by your own effort, and you never thought that you
should acknowledge that favor of Him Who gave you life. Secondly, it is your Lord's
bounty and kindness that you can freely do whatever you like in the world and it
never so happens that whenever you happen to commit an error, He should punish
you with paralysis, or blind your eyes, or cause lightning to strike you. But you took
His bountifulness for weakness and were beguiled into thinking that the Kingdom of

“And We have honored the children of Adam, blessed them
with conveyances on land and sea, provided them with
good and pure things and exalted them above many of Our
creatures.”
The word used for honored is karram-na, from the same root
karam. Allah (swt) has given the human being a sense of honor
and dignity in being human. He has preferred the human over
other creation. Iblis (Satan) even recognizes this, saying:
“Do You see this one whom You have honored [karram-ta]
above me? If You delay me until the Day of Resurrection, I will
surely destroy his descendants, except for a few.” (Qur’an
17:62)

21. َ‫ك‬ُّ‫ب‬َ‫ر‬َ‫و‬ ْ‫أ‬َ‫ر‬ْ‫ق‬‫ا‬ُ‫م‬َ‫ر‬ْ‫ك‬َ ْ‫اْل‬
“Recite, and your Lord is the most Generous”
We see Allah describes the lowly origin of man, then He
describes Himself as the Most Noble. Karam in arabic is
something which should be respected for what it is. So us
being a lowly clot of blood is not honorable, but Allah is
truly honorable. It is Allah who honored us.
“And We have certainly honored the children of Adam”
[Israa' 17:70]

22. In Surah Muminoon verse 116, Allah says:
‫ى‬َ‫ل‬‫ا‬َ‫ع‬َ‫ت‬َ‫ف‬‫ا‬ ُّ‫ب‬َ‫ر‬ َ‫و‬ُ‫ه‬ ‫َل‬‫إ‬ َ‫ه‬ٰ‫ـ‬َ‫ل‬‫إ‬ َ‫َل‬ ۖ ُّ‫ق‬َ‫ح‬ْ‫ل‬‫ا‬ ُ‫ك‬‫ل‬َ‫م‬ْ‫ل‬‫ا‬ ُ‫ه‬‫ـ‬‫الل‬﴿ ‫يم‬‫َر‬‫ك‬ْ‫ل‬‫ا‬ ‫ش‬ْ‫ر‬َ‫ع‬ْ‫ل‬١١٦﴾
“So exalted is Allah , the Sovereign, the Truth; there is
no deity except Him, Lord of the Noble Throne.”

24. Firstly, recognize the worth that Allah (swt) has given you in
being a human being, with intellect and a capacity to choose
and Had made us “Asharf-ul-Makhloqaat”
 This dignity was given by God; and as people, we must act in
ways that are dignified.
We dishonor ourselves by lying, cheating, being rude, and
ignoring injustice.
We should not indulge in such activities which are against the
standards of human being

25. Secondly, recognize Allah’s generosity in His dealings with
you, and that everything good we have is a result of Allah’s
generosity.
 Reflect upon how Allah’s generosity exceeds all expectations.
It is important to contemplate over what we have, and realize
that what we have is truly over and above our basic needs. All
that is from the generosity of al-Kareem.

26. Thirdly, be generous to people, knowing that Allah (swt)
compensates His servants because He is the ultimate in
Generosity.
 Not simply in money, but in time and simple generosity in
attitude. The Prophet ‫ﷺ‬would never say “no” when he
was asked for something [Agreed upon].
The Prophet ‫ﷺ‬also said: “The generous one is close to
Allah, close to people, far from the fire; a stingy person is
far from Allah, far from people, far from Paradise; and the
generous ignorant person is more beloved to Allah than a
stingy worshipper.” (Tirmidhi)
