Al-Basir (The All-Seer) affirms that Allah sees every action, movement, and circumstance clearly, in darkness and in light alike. In the Quran, this Divine Name appears 42 times across 42 verses in 25 surahs, from Quran 2:96 (Surah Al-Baqarah) to Quran 84:15 (Surah Al-Inshiqaq).
Reflection: Living before Al-Basir brings comfort to those doing good unseen and restraint when tempted away from righteousness.
