Topic:
Explaining the meaning of one of Allah`s name ” Al-Salam”
Description:
In this video, Shaykh Yasir Qadhi discusses the name Al-Salam (As-Salam). This name only occurs once in the Qur’an.
Salam means peace, but also means the absence of evil and harm.
For the name of Allah, As-salam means:
1) The all perfect, with no characteristics of imperfection
2) The source of Salam (peace), and that He grants the most perfect peace.
3) The one who greets those who believe in Him, with the greeting of Salam.
As-Salam is also the first word taught to Adam by Allah, where he was asked to say Assalamualaikum Warahmatullah to the angels, and memorize their response of “Walaikum assalam warahmatullahi Wabarakatuhu.”
