Meaning — English

Al-Latif works in ways invisible to the eye — the small turn of events that redirected your life, the person you ‘happened’ to meet, the door that ‘coincidentally’ opened. ‘Surely my Lord is subtle in fulfilling what He wills’ (12:100).


معنی — اردو

اللطیف ایسی لطافت سے کام کرتا ہے کہ نظر نہیں آتا۔ وہ اتفاقات جو آپ کی زندگی بدل دیتے ہیں — اللطیف کا کام ہے۔


In Daily Life

Look back at your life and trace the ‘coincidences’ that shaped it. That is Al-Latif. He is working in your life right now in ways you won’t fully see until later.
