00:00:21.260 Thus, He is in no need of anyone. 00:00:21.260 --> 00:00:23.260 And by Him, everything is sustained. 00:00:23.260 --> 00:00:25.260 For everything other than Him. 00:00:25.260 --> 00:00:27.260 Is essentially in need of Him. 00:00:27.260 --> 00:00:29.260 And His Qayyumiyyah (Self-Sustaining nature). 00:00:29.260 --> 00:00:31.260 Glorified is He, is evidence of. 00:00:31.260 --> 00:00:33.259 The perfection of His independence and the perfection of His power. 00:00:33.259 --> 00:00:35.259 Because whoever sustains Himself by Himself. 00:00:35.259 --> 00:00:37.259 Is independent

00:00:55.520 --> 00:00:57.520 The attributes of the essence of Allah, glorified is He. 00:00:57.520 --> 00:00:59.520 And the name al-Qayyum. 00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:01.520 Encompasses the attributes of His actions. 00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:03.520 And for this reason, it has been said. 00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:05.519 That al-Hayy al-Qayyum. 00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:07.519 Are the Greatest Name of Allah. 00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:09.519 Because they encompass all. 00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:11.519 The meanings of His names and attributes. 00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:13.780 Glorified is He. 00:01:13.780 --> 00:01:15.780 Among the effects of believing in the name al-Qayyum. 00:01:15.780 --> 00:01:17.780 In this manner. 00:01:17.780 --> 00:01:19.780 First. 00:01:19.780 --> 00:01:21.780 The veneration of

Everything other than Him. 00:01:27.780 --> 00:01:29.780 Is worthy of veneration, magnification. 00:01:29.780 --> 00:01:31.939 And love. 00:01:31.939 --> 00:01:33.939 Second. 00:01:33.939 -->

00:01:41.939 Everything. 00:01:41.939 --> 00:01:43.939 And severing attachment to the weak created being. 00:01:43.939 --> 00:01:45.939 Who is no different. 00:01:45.939 --> 00:01:47.939 From the one

disobedient among them. 00:02:20.349 --> 00:02:22.349 Then how much greater is His Qayyumiyyah. 00:02:22.349 --> 00:02:24.349 For those who fear Him and take Him as their Protector. 00:02:24.349 --> 00:02:26.349 And prefer Him over all others. 00:02:26.349 --> 00:02:28.539 Fourth. 00:02:28.539 --> 00:02:30.539 The answering of the supplication of one who calls upon Him. 00:02:30.539 -->
