Al-Majīd - The Most Glorious One

Al-Majīd is the One noble in his essence, beautiful in his deeds and liberal in his gift and favour. Even as nobility of essence when joined to goodness in deeds is “glory” so that He is called Al-Mājid as well as Al-Majīd, yet one of the two (i.e. the latter) is more indicative of magnification. Al-Mājid appears to combine the meaning of the names of Al-Jalīl, Al-Wahhāb and Al-Karīm, and we have spoken about them previously.
