‫ٱلل َّٰ هه ا‬ ‫هب ْس هم‬
Bismillaah / Bismillaahir Rahmaanir Raheem
In the Name of Allah / In the Name of Allah the Most Merciful, the Especially Merciful

Blessings raining down; start (permissible) deeds in the Name of Allah for blessings

Abu Huraira (radiAllahu ‘anhu) narrated that the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wa salam) said:
“Every matter that does not begin with remembrance of Allah is incomplete.” [Ahmad, al-Musnad
(14/329)]
The meaning of the hadeeth is acceptable and applicable. Allah opens His Book with the Basmalah, and Sulaymaan (peace be upon him)
opened his letter to the Queen of Sheba (Saba’) with the Basmalah. Allah says: “Verily, it is from Sulaymaan (Solomon), and verily, it
(reads): In the Name of Allaah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful” [al-Naml 27:30]. The Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon
him) opened his letter to Heraclius with the Basmalah, and he used to start his khutbahs with praise and glorification of Allah. It says in al-
Mawsoo‘ah al-Fiqhiyyah (8/92): Most of the fuqaha’ are agreed that saying the name of Allah is prescribed for all things of importance,
both acts of worship and other things. End quote.
