الشرح والدلالة · Explanation

الضار هو الذي يقدّر الضر على من يشاء بعدله وحكمته.

Ad-Daarr means 'The Afflictor' or 'The Distressor'. It signifies that Allah is the One who creates harm and adversity, allowing difficulties to reach whom He wills according to His wisdom. He tests His servants with hardship to purify them, remind them of their need for Him, and elevate their ranks. All harm and benefit come from Him alone. Quran References: 'If Allah touches you with harm, none can remove it but He' (6:17). 'And if Allah should touch you with adversity, there is no remover of it except Him' (10:107). Spiritual Significance: Ad-Daarr reminds us that all difficulties come from Allah and contain wisdom. It encourages patience, reliance on Allah, and seeking His protection. Benefit: Reciting Ad-Daarr protects from harmful afflictions, helps in accepting trials with patience, and reminds us of Allah's ultimate control over all things. It is beneficial for those facing hardships.
