Lesson One
WALT:-
o To explain the concept
behind the name of Allah”
The Forgiving” and the
name of Allah “The Just”.
To explain the
characteristics of the
forgiveness of Allah, and
identify the scope of Divine
justness
Allah’s name Al-Ghafour, The Forgiving, The Exceedingly
and Perfectly Forgiving, occurs 91 times in the Quran. He
is the One whose forgiveness manifests both quality and
quantity. Al-Ghafour is the One Who forgives, regardless
of how large the sin is, and He forgives over and over
again!
The Perfect Forgiver and Pardoner, the One Who
Covers and Protects
Ghafour comes from the root ghayn- faa- raa, which
points to three main meanings. The first meaning is to
cover, veil, conceal, and hide. The second meaning is to
pardon, to forgive, and to set aright. And the third
meaning is to cover a thing to protect it (from dirt).
This root appears 234 times in the Quran in nine derived
forms. Examples of these forms are yaghfiru (He forgives,
will forgive), wa-is’taghfir (and ask forgiveness), and
maghfiratun (forgiveness).
Linguistically, both ghafoor and ghaffaar refer to the
concept of maghfirah. Al-Ghaffaar refers to the fact that
Allah forgives repeatedly (the quantity) whereas the name
Al-Ghafoor points to the extent of His forgiveness (the
quality). Allah’s name Al-Ghafoor does not just mean that
He forgives us; He also protects and shields us from the
consequences of our own actions. He does maghfirah—
He covers our sins while being fully aware of what they
are. His perfect forgiveness is truly a sign of His ultimate
mercy for us!
Al-Ghafoor Himself says: Inform My servants that it is I
who am the Forgiving, the Merciful [Quran, 15:49] . . . He
causes it to reach whom He wills of His servants. And He
is the Forgiving, the Merciful. [Quran, 10:107] . . . He said,
I will ask forgiveness for you from my Lord. Indeed, it is
He who is the Forgiving, the Merciful. [Quran, 12:98]
