The Gatherer. He who brings together what He wills, when He wills, where He wills.The One who
gathers the creatures on a day that there is no doubt about, that is the Day of Judgment.
YA JAMI"U: O Gatherer! One who invokes this Name will quickly find a thing thai he has lost.If
anyone's family or relatives are scattered he should bath at the time of salat Duha (Cahst) and
lifting the gaze towards the heavens say this Ism 10 times. But this should be enumerated with each
reading, one finger should be closed until all ten fingers are closed. Thereafter the hands should be
passed across the face (as when completing dua). By doing so the dispersed members of his family
will soon come together Insha-Allah. This name can be read for true love.
The One who reconciles and unites. The One who gathers together that which had been dispersed.
The One who assembles and arranges. The One who composes, arranges and connects together.
