Who's Really in Control? Al-Malik & Al-Maleek | #9 Allah's Names & Attributes | Ustadh Tim Humble

Control is something we rarely question. We want control over our circumstances, our future, the people around us, and the outcomes we hope for. It's easy to think that if we could just hold on a little tighter, we'd finally feel at peace. But what if that way of thinking is exactly what's keeping us restless?

In this episode of Fiqh al-Asma al-Husna series, Sheikh Muhammad Tim Humble explores two of Allah's Beautiful Names - Al-Malik and Al-Maleek - and what they reveal about ownership, authority, and the reality of who is truly in control. Along the way, he reflects on one of the Qur'an's most striking questions, a verse that strips away every illusion we cling to and reminds us that every soul, every possession, and every decree belongs to Allah alone.

Whether you've struggled to accept Allah's decree, found yourself asking "Why did this happen to me?", or simply want to deepen your understanding of your Lord, this episode offers a perspective that's both humbling and deeply comforting.

Sometimes, peace doesn't come from gaining more control.

It comes from recognising that it was never ours to begin with.
