When they turn to Me in worship, I listen and answer their prayers."

The Turning Point of Belief

Think of a moment when everything shifted. Not a grand, theatrical change, but a quiet, almost imperceptible nudge. A moment when 'I can't' became 'I might,' and then, 'I will.' We see these tipping points everywhere—trends, movements, ideas—but what about within ourselves? What if that shift, that quiet transformation, could be triggered by something as simple as a name?

We live in a world obsessed with affirmations, with mantras. 'I am powerful,' we say. 'I am worthy.' But what if those words carried not just intention, but divine power? What if the very act of speaking them could rewire our hearts?

This isn't a book about religious dogma. It's a book about rhythm. The rhythm of life, the rhythm of the universe, and the hidden rhythm within Allah's 99 Names. It's about how these names, these ancient vibrations, can become the soundtrack to your transformation.

To shield you from the unseen forces that weigh on the soul, guarding against the silent assaults of spiritual darkness.

The Meaning of Names

"We underestimate names. We think they're labels, simple identifiers. But names are stories. They're echoes of history, whispers of identity. What, then, of the names of God? What stories do they tell? What identities do they reveal?"

"Consider the power of 'Ar-Rahman,' the All-Merciful. It's not just a word; it's a promise. A promise that no matter how far we stray, mercy is always within reach. It's a promise that can change how we see ourselves, how we see the world."

"In mantra meditation, words are tools, empty vessels. But in the Islamic tradition, words are sacred. They carry weight, meaning, and power. Each of Allah's 99 Names is a key, unlocking a different aspect of the divine."

.

The Art of Recitation

"We live in a world of constant noise. Notifications, distractions, endless streams of information. How do we find stillness? How do we create space for the divine?"

"Recitation isn't about rote memorization. It's about creating a connection. It's about slowing down, focusing, and allowing the meaning of the names to seep into your heart."

"Think of it like learning a new language. At first, the words are foreign and unfamiliar. But with practice, they become part of you. They shape your thoughts, your feelings, your very being."

"Purification is not just physical, it is a mental state. By cleaning our space, we are cleaning our minds."

"Niyyah, the intention, is like setting a compass. It gives direction to our recitation, focusing our energy and amplifying its power."

“If my servants turn to me and worship me,

I will answer their prayers…”

Al-Baqara Surah, 186th ayah

Names for Every Journey

"Life is a series of tests, a constant ebb and flow of joy and sorrow, success and failure. How do we navigate these challenges? How do we find balance in a world of imbalance?"

"There's a name for every situation, a divine remedy for every ailment. Feeling lost? Recite 'Al-Hadi,' the Guide. Struggling with fear? Recite 'Al-Mu'min,' the Guardian of Faith. Each name is a lifeline, a source of strength and comfort."

"Allah encourages us to turn to him. Like a parent that wants to help their child. We just have to ask."

"Imagine a tool box. Inside are 99 tools. Each one is designed for a specific purpose. When you understand the tools, you can fix anything."

"When My servant comes striding toward Me,

I come hastening to him."

[Sahih Muslim, Hadithnr. 4832/Chapter 48]

The Wave Effect

What happens when we recite these names? How do they change us? How do they change the world around us? It's like dropping a pebble into a pond. The ripples spread outward, touching everything in their path. Reciting Allah's names creates a ripple effect, transforming not just ourselves, but our families, our communities, our world. The Prophet Muhammad said, 'The deeds of men are according to their intentions.' Our intentions shape our actions, and our actions shape our world. By reciting these names, we align ourselves with the divine will, becoming instruments of peace, love, and compassion.

What if I told you that a simple phrase, a string of ancient words, could rewire your heart?

„Estagfurullah“

Practice: 33 times before bedtime or after the night prayer, this recitation promises healing in conjunction with the protective prayers, and the suras from the Qur'an. „Estagfurullah“ roughly translated means:

"I ask Allah for forgiveness and support".

For daily recitation (as well as before the start of recitation), the following suras are suitable:

Fatiha Surah 21 times

Al-Ichlas Surah 7 times

Nas Surah 7 times

Falaq Surah 7 times

Ash-Sharh Surah 21 times

Al Qalam Surah 7 times

According to traditions, our Prophet Hz. Muhammad (peace be upon him) used to read the surahs Al-Fatiha, En-Nas, Al-Falaq, and Ichlas 7 times into his outstretched hands every night before falling asleep and then rub them over his face and upper body for a restful sleep and protection during sleep. In Al-Baqarah Surah, there is a verse that is the most exalted verse among the Quranic verses. This is the "Âyat-al Kursi." Some hadiths emphasize the importance of this ayah. In this verse, Allah is described.

Especially when you have inner restlessness, and anxiety or when you feel that things are not going well in life, you can recite the following:

Yunus Sure, 81. ayah, recite 33 times

AyahAl-Kursi (Al-Baqara, 255. ayah repetition of 7 times (or more)

Al Fatiha Sure, repetition of 21 times

In shā' Allāh (with Allah's will) it will bring you purification and cure.

„if you do not get back the appreciation you give to your counterpart then break up this friendship”

(the words of prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him)

Focus on the unexpected

Why do we hold onto grudges like precious heirlooms? Why do we replay past hurts like worn-out records? What if forgiveness isn't about the other person, but about freeing ourselves? What if it's the ultimate act of self-preservation?

We cling to control, convinced we're steering our ship. But what if true strength lies in surrender? What if forgiveness isn't just a virtue, but a strategic advantage? Imagine a life where every setback, every disappointment, is a lesson in disguise. A life where you're not just a player, but a student in a grand, divine classroom.

There's a tipping point in every life, a moment when we realize we can't control everything. That's when we have a choice: cling to the illusion of control or embrace the serenity of surrender. It's in that surrender that we find true power, the kind that comes from knowing we're part of something bigger than ourselves.

That's the power of letting go.

The virtues and secrets of Yunus Surah preserve their youth and freshness, and even the best is the Almighty God. For this reason, the virtues and characteristics of the Quran are stated in verses and hadiths as follows: "This is a great book. We have taken it down. It is very blessed. (Its benefits and abundance are many.) Now obey it, keep its commands, and fear Allah. That mercy may be shown to you.

Surah Al An´Am, 6/155

There are seven verses in which anyone who recites them or carries them with himself, in any case, even if the sky is covered over the earth, Allah will surely provide an exit and salvation for that person

(Ali ibn Abi Talib)

Surah at-Tawbah (51st ayah),

Surah Yunus (107th ayah),

Surah Hud (6th ayah).

Surah Hud (56th ayah)

Surah al-Ankabut (60th ayah),

Surah al-Fath (2nd ayah)

Surah az Zumar (38th ayah)

To purify mental discomfort recite 100 times or more

Yunus Surah, 57th ayah

„Ya eyyuhennasu gad caa etkum mev´izatum mirrabbikum ve Şifa ul lima fissuduri ve hudev ve rahmetul lilmu´miniin“

Rough translation

"O mankind! Now there has come to you from your Lord an exhortation, and a healing for that which troubles you (in your hearts), and a guidance and mercy for the faithful."

Yunus Surah, 80th, 81st, 82nd ayah

Eûzu billahi mineş-şeytânirracîm. Bismillahirrahmanirrahîm.

80th: Fe lemmâ elkav kâle mûsâ mâ ci’tum bihis sihr(sihru), innallâhe se yubtiluhu, innallâhe lâ yuslihu amelel mufsidîn

“When the magicians came, Moses said to them, “Cast whatever you wish to cast!”

81st: Ve yuhikkullâhul hakka bi kelimâtihî ve lev kerihel mucrimûn.

“When they did, Moses said, “What you have produced is mere magic, Allah will surely make it useless, for Allah certainly does not set right the work of the corruptors.”

82nd: Fe vakaal hakku ve batale mâ kânû ya’melûn(ya’melûne).

“And Allah establishes the truth by His Words—

even to the dismay of the wicked.”

Curative ayat

Before we start reciting the following ayah,

we should recite the name of Allah, which we do not find among the 99 names, but can find in the Quran, "Ya Şafi," and follow it with "Sadiqallahu'l azim" to conclude the prayer. First: Ya Şafi, then the following ayah (can be repeated as many times as desired):

1.At-Tauba (Tawba) Surah, 14th ayah, sadiqallahu´l azim

Yunus Surah, 57th ayah, sadiqallahu´l azim

Yunus Surah 81st ayah, sadiqallahu´l azim

En-Nahl Surah, 69th ayah, sadiqallahu´l azim

Isra Sure, 82nd ayah sadiqallahu´l azim

As-Suara Surah, 80th ayah, sadiqallahu´l azim

Al-Baqara Surah, 255. Ayah

(Ayah´al- Kursi "Throne Verse")

„Amin“

As-Sarh/ Ash-Sharh Surah: The opening

This surah brings positive energy and resolves various discomforts. It is seen as a curative prayer.

Bismillahirrahmânirrahîm.

1- Elem neşrah leke sadrek

2- Ve vada'na 'anke vizreke

3- Elleziy enkada zahreke

4- Ve refa'na leke zikreke

5- Feinne me'al'usri yuusren

6- İnne me'al'usri yuusren

7- Feiza ferağte fensab

8- Ve ila rabbike ferğab

Rough translation: "In the name of Allah, the All-merciful, the Merciful. Have we not opened and enlarged thy heart? And relieved thee of thy burden. Which made thee crooked and pressed thee down. And increased your prestige? Certainly, with every aggravation comes relief. Now when thou art done (with one task) then exert thyself (for the next task). And direct thy desire toward thy Lord."

In shā' Allāh it will bring you healing.

I am neither in heaven nor am I on earth... I do not fit anywhere…

Except in the hearts of my faithful servants.

(İmam Gazali, book: İhyâ-u Ulûmiddîn)

In shā' Allāh (With Allah's Will)

You will find peace!

Preparation for the recitation

We underestimate the power of words. But what if certain phrases held the key to unlocking our deepest potential? Let's delve into the world of recitation."

Step 1: before the first time recitation, it is necessary to perform the Islamic ritual cleansing (washing, wudu). This cleansing (washing) leads to purification and only then can we stand in front of Allah.

Practice: Recite the following in a low voice (whispering): „Eshhedu en la ilahe illallah ve eshhedu enne Muhammeden rasulullah “

Translation:

"I testify that there is no God but Allah and I testify that Muhammad is Allah's messenger."

For the first time, wash from head to toe and gargle with water three times, and also draw water through the nose. If one does not regularly perform the daily 5 obligatory prayers, one should recite the following prayers before starting to recite the Names of Allah.

Because words have power. But some words have extraordinary power. Let's begin a journey of discovery through recitation."

Step 2: It is particularly effective that at least 1 time (or more) a day (optimally) before each recitation recite the following prayers (in a low voice; whispering):

Al-Fatiha Surah

al-Ihlās Surah

Nas Surah

Falaq Surah

This makes the recitation particularly effective and protects the positive energies during the recitation. I will present these protective prayers in the next pages.

Al-Fatiha:

This is the first and opening surah from the Quran and means "The Opening"

Bismillahirrahmânirrahîm.

2- Elhamduu lillâhi rabbil'alemin

3- Errahmânir'rahim

4- Mâliki yevmiddin

5- İyyâke na'budû ve iyyâke neste'în

6- İhdinessırâtel muustakîm

7- Sırâtellezine en'amte aleyhim ğayrilmağdûbi aleyhim ve leddâllîn

Amin!

"In the name of Allah, the All-Merciful. All praise is due to Allah, the Lord of the Worlds. The Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate. The only Royal Highness on the Day of Judgment. To Thee alone do we serve and to Thee alone do we implore help. Guide us along the straight path. The way of those to whom You have shown Your favor. Not of those who have only won Your wrath. And not of those who go astray. Amin"

Al-Ichlās

Al-Ichlas is the 112th sura of the Qur'an (The Sincerity) and one of the shortest. The U and A are elongated if there is an apostrophe as in the example below.

Bismillahirrahmânirrahîm.

1- Kul hûvallâhû ehad

2- Allâhûssamed

3- Lem yelid ve lem yûled

4- Ve lem yekún lehû kûfûven ehad

"In the name of Allah, the All-merciful, the Merciful. Allah is unique, Allah is eternally Pure. Has not begotten and has not been begotten. And nothing is equal to Allah (Allah is comparable to nothing that exists – Allah has created everything that exists).

Al Falaq

Al-Falaq is the 113th sura of the Qur'an (The Dawn).

A regular recitation relaxes the mind in times of restlessness and overthinking.

Bismillahirrahmânirrahîm.

1- Kul eûzu birabbilfalak.

2- Min şerri mâ halak. (pronounced: sherrii; maa,)

3- Ve min şerri ğhâzikin izhâ vekab. (soft G= ğ, pronounced in the throat/simpler: long a)

4- Ve min şerri nneffâsâti fil’ukad.

5- Ve min şerri hâsidin izâ hased

"In the name of Allah, the All-merciful, the Merciful. I seek my refuge with the Lord of the Dawn. From the evil of what Allah has created. And from the evil of darkness when it falls. And from the evil of the knot blowers. And from the evil of every envious one when he envies."

An-Nas

An-Nas is the concluding sura in the Quran (Mankind)

A regular recitation quiets the thoughts in times of high stress and emotional unrest.

Bismillahirrahmânirrahîm.

1- Kul e'ûzuu birabbinnâs

2- Melikinnâs

3- İlâhinnâs

4- Min şerrilvesvâsilhannâs

5- Ellezî yuuvesvisû fî sudûrinnâs

6- Minelcinneti vennâs

"In the name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Merciful. I seek refuge with the Lord of men. With the King of men. With the God of men. From the evil of the whisperer who escapes (from us) and returns. Who whispers (into the heart) of men. Among the jinn and the people (whom Allah has created).

The Power of Gratitude (Alhamdulillah)

Purification:

Regularly saying "Alhamdulillah" (meaning "All praise is due to Allah") is believed to purify the soul and pave the way for one's wishes to come true.

Appreciation

Muslims are encouraged to express gratitude for all blessings, big and small – health, family, work, talents, and even everyday things like sunshine or a smooth commute.

Positive Energy

Cultivating a habit of gratitude is said to improve one's energy levels and foster inner peace.

Practical Guidance

Recitation: reciting "Alhamdulillah" 33 times after morning or night prayers is suggested

Everyday Gratitude

It's recommended to say "Alhamdulillah" after eating and drinking as a way to express thanks for sustenance.

The Praise (Subhanallah): praise God by saying "Subhanallah" ("Glory to God").

The phrase "Bismillahirrahmanirrahim" ("In the name of the merciful and gracious God") is highlighted for its significance and the blessings associated with reciting it in various situations.

In essence, the text emphasizes that gratitude is a core principle in Islam, bringing numerous spiritual and practical benefits to those who practice it.

.„Alhamdulillah“ الحمد لله

Recitation: 33 times after the morning prayer (Fajr) or after the night prayer. A common translation is:

"My praise and worship to the Lord"

It is common and effective to recite "Alhamdulillah" after eating and drinking (to express gratitude for the food).

The Praise

„Subhanallah“ سبحان الله

Recitation: 33 times before bedtime or after-night prayer. Subhanallah is often translated as "Glory to God". Alhamdulillah can also be recited together with "Subhanallah" and with "Allah".

„Bismillahirrahmanirrahim“

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Rough translation:

"In the name of the merciful and gracious God" and contains 2 of Allah's 99 names, namely "Ar-Rahman" and "Ar-Rahim" at the end of the word. These names represent health, prosperity, and positive energies. It is an Arabic invocation that is found at the beginning of every surah of the Quran with one exception.

The miracles of reciting Bismillahirrahmanirrahim in everyday life:

Before bedtime ensure a peaceful sleep

As a recitation 33 times for inner peace

As recitation 786 times for "purification" and increase of own positive energy

As recitation 1000 times for solving problems and blockages

In connection with other names of Allah as recitation

(example: "Bismillahil-Lateef")

Before eating and drinking

When entering a home for positive energies

When leaving the house protected on the journey

When moving to a new apartment for positive energies

Before each reading of a sura from the Qur´an

Before every prayer to Allah

When closing doors for positive energies

And in many more occasions

In shā' Allāh (With Allah's Will) your prayers will be answered.

"In the name of Allah the All-Merciful, the Merciful"

"Verily, Allah was merciful to the believers, since He raised among them a messenger from among you to recite His verses to them and purify them therewith..."

(Al-Imran Surah, verse 164/ Translation from the book of Sahih Al Buhary).

Esma Ul Husna

In the realm of spirituality, there lies an ancient and transformative practice—Esma-ul Husna, the recitation of Allah’s beautiful names, or "asma Allah al-husna" in Arabic. These 99 names, found in the Qur'an, are not merely words but a mosaic of divine attributes, each illuminating a unique facet of the Almighty. They serve as both a bridge and a mirror—connecting the human soul to its Creator while reflecting His infinite qualities.

Yet, tradition whispers of an even greater mystery—of names beyond the 99, hidden from human understanding. One such name, Şafi (pronounced Shaafi), embodies healing. It is a name not just to be spoken, but to be experienced. Across time, believers have shared rituals steeped in faith and symbolism: recite “Ya Şafi” alongside surah Al-Kawthar 21 times over a glass of water, then drink until only a fraction remains. That remnant, a vessel of blessing, nourishes life—whether poured into the soil of a plant or given to the earth itself. It’s not just a ritual; it’s an act of reciprocity with the natural world.

The practice, like all acts of devotion, finds power in precision. Adding Jalla Jalaluhu to the name, or invoking "Ya" before the attribute, transforms a simple utterance into a direct call to the Divine. It’s the linguistic equivalent of turning a flickering candle into a blazing torch, enlightening the path to deeper connection.

Central to this spiritual journey is the Tasbih or Misbaha—a string of prayer beads, ancient yet enduring, as relevant in the digital age as in centuries past. Beads may be replaced by apps, but the essence remains unchanged: the repetitive, meditative rhythm of Dhikr ("reminding oneself") purifies the heart and frees the soul from negativity. This ritual transcends boundaries; it fits seamlessly into the moments of everyday life—on a bus, a plane, or while waiting in line.

The accessibility of Dhikr reveals its profound wisdom. Even in circumstances where traditional prayer is restricted, such as during menstruation, Dhikr remains a sanctuary. It is a practice that safeguards body, soul, and spirit—a timeless reminder that the journey to the Divine is always open, wherever and whenever one chooses to begin.

The 99 Names of Allah

(Asma Al Husna)

Imagine a symphony, with each note precisely placed to evoke harmony; this is what the recitation of esma al-husna achieves within the human body and soul. It is not merely a spiritual exercise—it is an intricate ritual of balance and alignment, where each divine name serves as a distinct melody that resonates differently within each individual. This act of recitation transcends a formulaic approach; it’s not just about repeating a set pattern but exploring the depth of each name to unlock its unique power and influence on one’s inner world.
