Name 89 of 99

Al-Mughni

الْمُغْنِي

The Enricher

What it means

Al-Mughnī grants sufficiency to whom He wills — sometimes with wealth, sometimes with contentment (which is a truer wealth). The believer who has little but is content is enriched by this name more than the millionaire who has much and still craves.

This name appears explicitly in the following ayahs:

Q 9:28Q 9:74Q 9:93Q 53:48

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.
