Al-Majid

Researched and written by AI from the Qur'an and Sahih al-Bukhari · not yet reviewed by a scholar

Al-Majid (الماجد) is the Noble, whose nobility and generosity are perfect. It shares its root with Al-Majid (المجيد), the All-Glorious, and points to glory shown through generous giving.

• This Name is in the well-known list; the Qur'an describes Allah's Throne as 'glorious' from the same root.
• Nobility in Arabic means generosity without being asked and without expecting return.
• He gives before you ask and more than you deserve.
• A noble person forgives, gives and overlooks: that is how you reflect this Name.
• Praise Him for His nobility, not only His power.
