Al-Kabeer; The Greatest
Al-Kabeer is one of the 99 names of Allah in Islam. It is an Arabic word that signifies greatness, magnificence, and vastness. Al-Kabeer means the Most Great, the Most Magnificent, and the Most Grand.
In the Quran, Allah is described as Al-Kabeer in multiple verses. For example:
وَلَا تَنفَعُ ٱلشَّفَٰعَةُ عِندَهُۥٓ إِلَّا لِمَنۡ أَذِنَ لَهُۥۚ حَتَّىٰٓ إِذَا فُزِّعَ عَن قُلُوبِهِمۡ قَالُواْ مَاذَا قَالَ رَبُّكُمۡۖ قَالُواْ ٱلۡحَقَّۖ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَلِيُّ ٱلۡكَبِيرُ
And intercession does not benefit with Him except for one whom He permits. [And those wait] until, when terror is removed from their hearts, they will say [to one another], “What has your Lord said?” They will say, “The truth.” And He is the Most High, the Grand.
This verse illustrates the greatness of Allah, emphasizing His supreme knowledge, power, and authority over all creation.
