The Shaper of Beauty

Virtue

Al-Musawwir declares that Allah grants every creature its unique form, shape, and countenance. Billions of human beings created from the same earth differ in face, fingerprint, and voice—this diversity is the signature of Al-Musawwir. The Prophet (peace be upon him) promised that whoever enumerates Allah's ninety-nine beautiful names will enter paradise; Al-Musawwir is among them. The servant who reflects on this name perceives Allah's artistry in every face, flower, and detail of creation, and is freed from arrogance, from finding fault with others' appearances, and from ingratitude toward their own form.
