Allah is Al Hadi (The One Who Guides)
1 min readNov 6, 2025
Allah guides whoever He wills to the straight path. (Surah Al Baqarah)
(Chapter 2 verse 213)
From the 99 Names of Allah there is one that means, The One Who Guides.
If Allah guides someone to the straight path then none can lead him astray, and if Allah allows someone to go astray then no one can guide him.
The only reason a person goes astray and leaves Islam is because that person has weak imaan(Faith). Allah, the Most Merciful gives multiple chances to us every day to repent(Ask for forgiveness). At times, Shaytaan troubles us and makes us do things we wouldn’t want to do.
Don’t worry. Try to make some things a habit in your life if you don’t do them now. I myself also should and will try to habit these things.
