Video: The meaning of Subhanallah

In this video, the Imam Omar Suleiman delves into the meaning of the phrase “Subhanallah.”

He talks about how tasbih is only for Allah (SWT): “You cannot do tasbih to any other entity, there’s only glory that belongs to Allah.

It is mentioned in the Quran that everything in the heavens and the earth glorifies Allah. You see the angels constantly being in the state of tasbih, and all prophets did the same.

Imam Omar highlights the beauty of tasbiih as it allows believers to distance Allah from any imperfection in the world, while feeling a close connection to him. 

This word permeates everyday Muslim life; we see it in the Quran, and mention it in our obligatory prayers. By reflecting on this word, Imam Omar reveals deeper spiritual insights.
