Frequently Asked Questions

What does the name Hamid mean?

It means the One who is worthy of praise in every situation. Hamd is praise offered in every circumstance, not only when one has received good; in this respect it differs from gratitude (shukr).

What is the difference between hamd and shukr?

Shukr (gratitude) is offered in return for a blessing received; hamd (praise) is offered because He is worthy of praise in His Essence, whether there is a blessing or not. Surah al-Fatiha begins with hamd.
