الْحَيّ
The Ever-Living, whose life is eternal.
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.
Hayy means the One who is living and whose life is from Himself. The life of every living being is borrowed and comes to an end; the life of Hayy has no beginning and no end. Together with the name Qayyum, it forms the opening of Ayat al-Kursi.
In the Quran: Surah al-Baqarah, verse 255 (Ayat al-Kursi), begins: “There is no deity but Him; He is al-Hayy, al-Qayyum.”
It means the One who is living without beginning and without end. Because He does not receive life from another, neither death nor sleep overtakes Him.
Ayat al-Kursi begins with these two names. Hayy conveys life itself, Qayyum the sustaining of all things; together they describe both the source and the continuation of existence.
