Al-Qahhār - The Dominating One

Al-Qahhār is the One who breaks the backs of His powerful enemies. He dominates them by killing and humiliating them. Everything in existence is subjected to His dominance and power and is helpless in His grasp.

The dominating one among men is the one who dominates his enemies. Man’s greatest enemy is man himself, that is to say, his own inner being. In fact, he is even a greater enemy than Satan who deceived him. When man has dominated his own carnal appetites he has actually dominated Satan. For Satan would like nothing better than to hand man over to destruction through the means of his carnal appetites.
