This name means ‘to dominate over’ or ‘to subdue from above’. God says in the Qur'an: 'And He is the subjugator (Al-Qaahiru) over His servants. And He is the Wise (Al-Hakeem), the Acquainted [with all] (Al-Khabeer).

Imagine your daughter is slandered of the worst of crimes imaginable and rumours spread all across the community. You then find out one of the major protagonists is your close relative who you have been financially providing for, for many years. Can you even begin to imagine the pain and enraged anger you would feel?

This is what Abu Bakr Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) faced. He understandably swore an oath to stop spending on Mistah, d...
