ABJAD VALUE20
RECITED WITH THE INTENTION OFRecited with the intention of guidance and finding the right path.

Reciting a name as many times as its abjad value is a common custom; it is neither fard nor wajib. In the Dua Kitaplığı app's dhikr counter, this name comes ready with its target count.

What does Al-Hadi mean?

Hadi means the One who shows the right path. Guidance (hidayah) is of two kinds: showing the way and making one walk on it. Both are linked to this name; the Quran declares that no one can force another person into guidance.

In the Quran: Surah al-Furqan, verse 31, says: “Your Lord is sufficient as a Guide and Helper.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the name Hadi mean?

It means the One who grants guidance and shows the right path. What is asked for in every prayer through Surah al-Fatiha is this very guidance.

Can a person give guidance to someone else?

The Quran declares that guidance belongs to Allah alone and that even the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ could not guide those he loved. What a person can do is show the way and make dua.
