The Names of God (6): al-Rabb, "the Lord and Nourisher"

Adnan and Marc explore the name al-Rabb, which is usually translated at "The Lord" but with elements of educative and nourishing dimensions. Some even translate the name as "Nourisher". Although this is not one of the 99 names listed in typical devotional traditions, this self-description or name appears early in the Qur'an in its opening chapter, Surah Fatiha, in the verse "Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds." Al-Tilimsani discusses it, so Marc and I reflected on the themes of Lordship and Servanthood in the psychological and experiential schemes of Sufi understanding of this name as well as our own reflections. As ever, we try to orient our discussion not only around examining the meanings but also the mechanisms of the names for spiritual and psychological development and activation. Also as usual, we find social value as well in the effort to explore the Names in contemporary times. Join us!
