Meaning — English

Al-Jalil possesses absolute, transcendent majesty — glory that inspires awe and reverence. Invoked in ‘Dhu al-Jalali wal-Ikram’ (55:27, 55:78), which the Prophet ﷺ said should be frequently repeated. Jalal (majesty) inspires holy fear; Jamal (beauty) inspires love — together they form the complete relationship with Allah.

الجلیل وہ عظمت و جلال ہے جو خوف اور تعظیم پیدا کرتا ہے۔ ‘ذوالجلال والاکرام’ کثرت سے پڑھنے کا حکم ہے۔


In Daily Life

Awe of Al-Jalil is the antidote to petty fears. When His majesty fills your heart, the terrifying things of this world shrink to their actual size.
