الكريم

al-Karim — The Generous. It is name number 42 in the enumeration of God's most beautiful names in the hadith of Abu Hurayra (may God be pleased with him) at al-Tirmidhi ¹; Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya devoted a chapter of Jala' al-Afham to explaining these names ².

The name occurs in the Qur'an, among them: 23:116، 44:49، 82:6.

Abu Hurayra reports: 'God has ninety-nine names — a hundred less one; whoever enumerates them enters Paradise' ³.
