AL-LATEEF

(The Knower of Subtleties)

The Subtle One, The Gracious, The One who is kind to His slaves and endows upon them.

Allah is Al-Lateef. The most gentle and gracious to people and cares for them although they may be oblivious to his acts. His nature is kind, affectionate, and understanding for the subtle details of individual circumstances. His actions are so fine and subtle they can not be apprehended by us by any means. He does things for you, you will never know. This is the name of Allah to call when asking for help through hardship.

The root l-t-f which means : to be thin, delicate, refined, elegant, graceful to be gentle, gracious, courteous, kindly to be subtle, to know the obscurities of all affairs to treat with regard for circumstances to be most soothing and refined in manner to treat with kindness, goodness, gentleness, benevolence, and affection.

[And Luqman said], "O my son, indeed if wrong should be the weight of a mustard seed and should be within a rock or [anywhere] in the heavens or in the earth, Allah will bring it forth. Indeed, Allah is Subtle and Acquainted. (Quran 31:16)
