AHSAN TAQWÎM -  اَحْسَنِ تَقْو۪يمٍۘ

 

Literally: The best of forms. Giving the best form.

The creation of Allah in the best and most beautiful form with the attributes that each being is worthy of. Man’s creation in the most beautiful form with elevated and comprehensive abilities and faculties. (Qur’an 95:4)

 

Among the species of living beings, man is the neediest for the varieties of rizq. Janâb-i Haqq created man in the form of a comprehensive mirror to all His Names, a miracle of Qoudrah possessing equipment to weigh up and recognise stored treasuries of His Rahmah and the khalîfah on earth having the tools to weigh up the subtleties of His arts and the manifestations of all His Names. He, therefore, gave man an infinite need and made him needy for the infinite varieties of material and ma’nawî rizq. The means of raising man to Ahsan Taqwîm, which is the highest position according to such comprehensiveness, is shukr. If man does not offer shukr, he falls into asfal sâfilîn and perpetrates a great dhulm.
