Al Awwal - The First One

Al Awwal is the One who is " The First". He is the origin of the universe and everything in it.

He is the starting point of each and everything, each and every one.

He was not created by anyone but everyone else without any exception is invented, designed created, and recreated by Him.

He is in first place in all the best aspects and He has the most superior glory. May He be praised and exalted.

He promised the return to Him for His all creations. He is the destination for every soul's return. This also confers His first status as everything returns to the origin where it belonged at first.

Al Awwal is the One who has existed before all others and when there was nothing He was the Only One who existed.

He is the first One to know everything which we do and think. He is the first One to know what we say openly and what we hide inside our hearts. He is the first and the best at knowledge without any comparison. As He said in Ayat al kursi “No one can get from knowledge of anything except what He allows and wills”.

He is the One who created everything first time, even the raw material of human-made inventions. The intelligence and creativity of the human brain are made by Him. So He knows the best at the first level, about creation and creatures.

Human share in this name is obvious. It is all about keeping ALLAH subhanahu wa ta’ala as "The First" priority in life. It is by doing every work as He advised us in the best way and only for His pleasure.

Making Him our focus is the only way of success and peace in life.

This success and peace are meant both for this life and the coming eternal life too.
