Tradesmen look at buildings differently, depending on their trade: The carpenter casts an eye on the woodwork, the bricklayer on the brickwork and the painter on the walls and ceilings. Similarly, the greater a person's perception of Allah's names, the greater their alertness and understanding of life. Nothing passes them by, without thought and contemplation. When they see a display of mercy, they automatically and very naturally reflect on the names of Allah; Al-Rahim' (The Most Merciful), Al-Ra'ūf (The Pitying), Al-Wadūd (The Affectionate). When they sense might and awe, they are overcome with the names 'Al-Jabbar' (The Compeller), 'Al-Muntaqim' (The Avenger) and 'Al-Qahhar' (The Subduer). Eventually, they reach a station where every scene that unfolds, any sin which presents itself or any opportunity that drifts by, becomes a trigger for perusal and the remembrance of Allah, the achievement of which is precisely the objective of this book.
