TAWHEED AR-RUBUBIYYAH When you write down, who gave you the power to write? Allah gave you the power towrite. So when you say Bismillah, you are saying, I could not have done this without thepower Allah has given me. Bismillah, I do this by the power Allah has given me. Bismillah, Ieat, because Allah has given me this provision, and because had it not been for the powerAllah has given me, I would not be able to chew it. Bismillah, I write because if it was not forAllah giving me the power, my hand would not be able to move, it would be paralysed. Thatis like saying Laa hawla wa laa quwwata illah billah, if it was not for His power, I would nothave done this act, the power that Allah has given me to do this act. That is why Allah says:...:﴿﴾Every provision is from Allah. So that is the second aspect, that is Tawheed ar-Rububiyyah inBismillahi Ar-Rahmaan Ar-Raheem. TAWHEED AL-ASMAA WAS-SIFAAT You are seeking blessing by the name of Allah, Bismillah, you are using the Name of Allah to bless whatever you’re doing. When you are using the Name of Allah and then following,which we will take later, Ar-Rahmaan Ar-Raheem, those are names, qualities and attributesof Allah that we will discuss Inshaa Allah. So you are using the Name of Allah to bless the actyou are doing, that is Tawheed al-Asmaa was-Sifaat. That applies to any matter that you say Bismillahi Ar-Rahmaan Ar-Raheem to, any matter you say Basmalah to. Bismillahi Ar-Rahmaan Ar-Raheem is called Basmalah.When I say Bismillah to eat, or to sit an exam for example, I say Bismillah to bless thatmatter, to bless the test that I am taking. That is Asmaa was-Sifaat. Allah gave me the powerto eat or to write, that is Rububiyyah. I do this for the sake of Allah, by the permission of Allah, he permitted me to do this, it is Halaal so I am doing it, that is Tawheed Uloohiyyah.And likewise, take it for everything else. You understand now, when you say Bismillah, now you’re going to get a different perspective of what you used to say Bismillah before.Sometimes you’re saying it because you read a Hadith to say it, now you understand why you are saying it.
