Al-Haqq

الْحَقّ

The Truth

What it means

Al-Ḥaqq is truth in the deepest sense: reality that does not change, cannot deceive, and cannot be denied without contradiction. Everything else is 'true' only insofar as it aligns with Him.

Qur'anic evidence

This name appears explicitly in the following ayahs:

Q 6:62Q 20:114Q 22:6Q 23:116Q 24:25

Sources for this entry

The Arabic name and its enumeration follow the traditional list in Sunan al-Tirmidhī (§3507). The concise explanation reflects the consensus classical understanding taught in Al-Ghazālī's Al-Maqṣad al-Asnā and Ibn Kathīr's tafsīr. Qur'anic references are locations where the name appears in the Mushaf.

Contemplate Al-Haqq with SABR
