Al-Qur'an Surah Ash-Sharh Verse 4

Mufti Taqi Usmani

and We raised high your name.

Dr. Mustafa Khattab, the Clear Quran

and elevated your renown for you?[[ The Prophet’s name is always mentioned in the call to prayer, along with Allah’s Name. Close to the end of each of the five daily prayers, worshippers invoke Allah’s blessings upon the Prophet (ﷺ) and his family. When someone reverts to Islam, they testify that Allah is their Lord and Muḥammad is His Messenger. Muslims, even those who are not practicing, love the Prophet (ﷺ) and many name their children after him. ]]
