The Umayyad Caliphate

الخلافة الأموية
Text Size:
Al-Baqi is the "Everlasting" or "The Enduring"-one of the 99 Names of Allah. It refers to the reality that while everything in the "Dunya" is "Fani" (perishing), Allah alone remains. This name is also associated with "Jannat al-Baqi," the famous cemetery in Medina where many of the "Sahaba" and "Ahl al-Bayt" are buried. For the believer, Al-Baqi is a source of perspective; it reminds us to invest our temporary "Umr" (lifespan) into "Al-Baqiyat al-Salihat" (the enduring righteous deeds) that will benefit us in the "Akhirah." It shifts the heart's attachment from the vanishing world to the eternal Creator.
