The Trustee. He who manages the affairs of those who duly commit them to His charge, and who
looks after them better than they could themselves.The One who gives the satisfaction and is relied
upon.
YA WAKILU: O Trustee! By constantly invoking this Name, one comes to enjoy the protection of
Allah against the perils of water, fire, or any other threat.Anyone fearing any calamity caused by
an act of God should say Ya-Wakilu repeatedly. He will be protected from all calamities Insha-
Allah.
The One and only One who can be entrusted with the management and resolution of all affairs. The
One who is the supreme trustee, guardian and administrator of all things.
The One who may be trusted to do better for us that we can do for ourselves. The One who can be
entrusted to provide the perfect resolution for all matters.
From the root w-k-l which has the following classical Arabic connotations:
to appoint or entrust for the care or management of something
to have a commissioned agent, a guardian of one's interests
to rely upon, confide in, lean upon, submit to
This name is used in the Qur'ân. For example, see 6:102
This same root w-k-l also gives rise to the word tawakkul (or tawakul), which indicates submitting
to Allâh, relying upon Allâh, putting one's trust in Allâh.
In Farsi/Urdu the "w" is commonly transliterated as "v", as in al-Vakîl.
One's trust in Allâh should not be allowed to breed laziness or lack of care, but rather one must
always do one's own personal best, and then leave the rest to Allâh, as indicated so clearly by the
Prophet Muhammad when he said:
―Tie your camel, then put your trust in Allâh.‖
(Also written as al-wakil, al-wakeel, al-vakil, al-vakeel, the Trustee: ya wakil, ya wakeel )

YA QAWIYU: O Most Strong! An invocation to ward off harm from a superior foe.Anyone genuinely
oppressed or victimized should read this Ism profusely with view to counteracting the oppressor.
Allah will render him protection. Insha-Allah. (this should never be done if circumstances do not
warrant) Any person who reads this name at time of any dangers through the sky and makes God
his lawyer he will be prevented from the dangers of sky. Any person who is really misrable he only
should read this name so let his enemies go.
