The Keyes | Al-Kanuzul Qur'an Al-Azim: The Key to Allah’s Names and Power - April 29, 1995

Al-Kanuzul Qur'an Al-Azim: The Key to Allah’s Names and Power This episode launches a new series, Al-Kanuzul Qur'an Al-Azim, beginning with Al-Miftah (the Key). The host introduces the author and explains that the series will present the Names and Attributes of Allah directly drawn from the Qur'an. The episode reviews many Qur'anic verses (from Surahs such as Al-A'naam, Yunus, Ar-Ra'd, Al-Ahzab, Fatir, Al-Hajj, Al-Mu'min, Al-Jinn, Al-Baqarah, An-Nisa, and others) which emphasize that only Allah can give or remove harm and mercy, and that no one can save or protect from Allah except by His will. It also explains the correct understanding of these verses regarding shifaʿat (intercession): no one can independently save another from Allah’s decree, but Allah may grant the Prophet ﷺ and certain righteous servants permission to intercede. The episode warns against following desires over divine guidance and stresses reliance on Allah alone. The host concludes by noting these teachings are for guidance and announces the continuation of the series in the next episode.
