Divine Names: The 99 Healing Names of the One Love

I have a couple other books about the 99 Healing Names of the One Love, and this one is beautifully designed and written. It's a wonderful addition to my books, and one I find I go to frequently.

This book is a gem and imparts very deep spiritual concepts.

This book came in perfect condition. The writer defines not only the names of Allah, but brings the reader into the heart of Islam, revealing it's beautiful complexity and depth beyond stereotypes and prejudice. You are drawn into a deeper love than you could ever fathom with each page you read.

This book is intended for English speakers who want to understand better how to use the Divine Names in prayer. The divine quality contained in each name is explained in highly readable English and the 3 consonant Arabic root is identified. Each name is accompanied by a beautiful Arabic calligraphy rendering of the name. The specific healing power of each name is accessed through recitation. (A free MP3 file of the 99 Names may be downloaded from the author's website.) Sufis believe Arabic is one of the "sound-key" languages--that is that the vibration of the sounds themselves carry power to affect the human body, soul, and spirit. Reciting the names or a specific name brings healing. This reviewer is a mere novice at the practice, but I have definitely experienced benefits from praying in this way. I have also seen positive changes in others for whom I have prayed some divine names. If you value the heart opening and heart healing practice of "Remembrance of God," or want to learn about it from a learned Sufi teacher, this book will inspire.

Pretty awesome book. Comes with a link to download the authors recitation of the names.I love the fact that the Quran offers more than one name for God. This lets the reader seek God through different attributes, under different circumstances. For example, al - 'Aziz "the powerful, strong, beloved," nature of God can be reflected upon when in need of a source of strength, or Ar - Raheem "the boundlessly merciful" nature of God can be used when in need of love and affection.The author provides great insight into the meanings of each name.It is also worth noting that reflection on different attributes of God is not limited to Islam. Followers of the Hindu faith, for example, use the name Brahman for the one God and associate different attributes with other names; Vishnu "the Preserver or the Protector," Shiva "the Transformer."

Not only is this book one of the most accessible introductions to Sufism--it's stunningly beautiful, inside and out. A masterpiece of live and learn from, both on your coffee table and off.

Gave as a gift and the recipient absolutely loves it. Beautiful book, well made.

I am in love with this book!. As I am new to Sufism and have so much to learn, this is a great introduction and I can see that the depth of what the book has to offer will grow with me as I continue to learn and mature. It is also a terrific introduction for my friends and family who want to know more about the beautiful healing I am experiencing as I walk this path. The level of work and research put into this book is apparent and the calligraphy art adds so much to the information. Thank you for writing this!!
