What does Al-Jabbar mean?
Jabbar means the One who carries out His will in every situation and mends what is broken. The root of the word means both “to compel” and “to set a broken bone”; in Arabic, the doctor who sets a broken bone is also named from the same root. That is why Jabbar conveys not only overpowering might but also repair and making amends.
In the Quran: In Surah al-Hashr, verse 23, it comes after the name Aziz.
