| Word | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Ṣawwara (صوّر) | To form, shape, give image or figure |
| Muṣawwir (مصور) | One who gives distinctive form or appearance |
| Al-Muṣawwir (المصور) | The One who fashions each creation in its unique form, assigning shape, color, proportion, and features with complete precision — making each soul and body intentionally different, beautiful, and purposeful |

📖 QUR’ĀNIC VERSE
📌 Surah Al-Ḥashr 59:24
“He is Allah, the Creator, the Inventor, the Fashioner (Al-Muṣawwir); to Him belong the best names. Whatever is in the heavens and the earth glorifies Him. And He is the Almighty, the All-Wise.”
📚 Tafsir (Ibn Kathir, Al-Baghawi, Al-Sa‘di)**
- Al-Muṣawwir comes after Al-Khāliq (The Creator) and Al-Bāriʾ (The Evolver):
- Al-Khāliq creates the essence
- Al-Bāriʾ brings it forth
- Al-Muṣawwir gives it its shape, identity, beauty, and character
- His fashioning is:
- Unmatched — no repetition, no flaw
- Intentional — every feature, from galaxies to fingerprints, is crafted with wisdom
Al-Muṣawwir chose your face, your voice, your body — and He makes no mistakes.
🪞 Tafhīm (Relatable Understanding)
- You ask: “Why do I look like this? Why am I so different?”
Al-Muṣawwir says: “Because I chose your form — not just for this world, but for your path, your test, your return.”
📜 HADITH REFERENCE
📌 Sahih al-Bukhari 2221
Narrated by Abū Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him):
The Prophet ﷺ said:
“Allah created Adam in His form — sixty cubits tall. When He created him, He said, ‘Go and greet that group of angels and listen to how they greet you, for that will be your greeting and the greeting of your offspring.’”
📚 Tafsir (Ibn Hajar, An-Nawawi)**
- “In His form” means:
- Allah gave Adam a unique, noble form, not resembling creation
- It reflects honor, uprightness, hearing, speech, and will
- Al-Muṣawwir gave mankind:
- Form that reflects dignity
- Internal faculties that mirror purpose
Your shape was not random. Al-Muṣawwir honored you with it — body and soul.
🪞 Tafhīm (Relatable Understanding)
- You hide parts of yourself from shame.
Al-Muṣawwir shaped those parts — and He makes no flaws.
🌍 EVIDENCE IN TODAY’S WORLD
1. No Two Fingerprints Are the Same — Ever
- Trillions of people. Infinite distinctions.
That’s Al-Muṣawwir — giving every soul its unique stamp.
2. Beauty Appears Differently Across Creation
- Birds, trees, colors, faces, oceans — not one pattern dominates.
Al-Muṣawwir creates beauty in diversity, not uniformity.
3. Your Inner Qualities Were Also Fashioned
- Shyness, strength, intuition, compassion — all shaped for your journey.
Al-Muṣawwir designed your character, just as He did your face.
4. Artists, Designers, and Creators Seek Form — But Allah Originated It
- Human creativity is a reflection, not a rival, to Al-Muṣawwir’s truth.
His canvas is the heavens and the earth — and your body is part of His art.
❤️ EMOTIONAL ANCHORING
Al-Muṣawwir is the One who says:
“You are not a mistake. Your features were chosen. Your soul’s shell was shaped with care. Do not curse what I made with love.”
He:
- Shapes with mercy
- Creates distinctively
- Crafts outer and inner worlds
- Never duplicates — and never regrets what He shaped
If you struggle with your appearance, worth, or identity —
Return to Al-Muṣawwir, who knew what you needed to be before you were formed.
🤲 PERSONALIZED DU‘A
(Inspired by Qur’an 59:24 and Hadith Bukhari 2221)
Not from the Prophet’s exact words — but drawn from authentic meanings
Yā Muṣawwir,
Fashion my heart with faith as beautifully as You shaped my body.
Let me see the beauty You wrote into me — and help me walk in it with gratitude.
Correct what I’ve distorted in my self-image, and restore me to how You intended.
Let me return to You with a form purified by purpose — not outwardly, but inwardly whole.
