The Principle of Devoting to Worship

The messenger of God was more committed to saying prayers than any other worship. He used to say his prayer with a great devotion as the prayer was the most comprehensive form of worship to him.

A Commentary on the Hamd Surah (part 13)

In the current exegeses that we have seen, or which are quoted from, the word “din”‌ is said to mean judgment and reckoning. The lexicons give these meanings, too.

A Commentary on the Hamd Surah (part 8)

Do know that “praising”‌ is for a “favor”‌. From the noble verse, it is deduced that praising and extolment are confirmed for the state of the Greatest Name as the all-embracing Name, which has the state of being the Lord of the worlds, “the Beneficent,”‌ “the Merciful”‌ and “the Master of the Day of Judgment.”‌ So, these noble Names, i.e. “Rabb,”‌ “Rahman”‌ and “Malik”‌ should have an effective role in the praising.

A Commentary on the Hamd Surah (part 5)

Be aware that the knowledgeable and the formalists have said that; “Praising” is thanking by the tongue for a voluntary favor and, as they are unknown of all tongues except this fleshly organ, they consider all praising and glorifying God, or rather all the utterances of the Sacred Essence to be a kind of figurative speech.
