Al-Ghaffâr: The Forgiver

"...And I call you to the Incomparable, the Forgiver (Al-Ghaffâr )" (40:42).

The Forgiver is Allah's quality that makes manifest what is noble and hides what is disgraceful. The sins of human beings are among the disgraceful things which the Forgiver hides by covering over them in this world and disregarding their punishment in the hereafter.
