The Self-Subsisting,\u00a0 The Self-Existing One upon Whom all others depend<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The One whose nature it is to exist. The One who is free of any dependence on anything else for existence.<\/p>\n

The One through whom all things arise. The One by whom all things are eternally managed aright.<\/p>\n

The Ever-Living, Self-Existing One who is the foundation upon which all things exist.<\/p>\n

From the root q-w-m which has the following classical Arabic connotations:<\/p>\n

to stand up, to rise up, to ascend, become high
\nto begin, to start, to come to pass
\nto arise, to set out
\nto be on-going, to exist
\nto be founded, to be built on
\nto undertake, to carry out, to manage
\nto make aright, straighten out, accurate, exact
\nto make righteous, upright<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This name is used in the Qur’\u0101n. For example, see 2:255<\/p>\n

The attributes of al-Hayy and al-Qayy\u016bm are often used to together, with al-Hayy signifying the attribute of ever-lasting life, and al-Qayy\u016bm signifying the attribute of self-existing life. Thus, the attributes of al-Hayy and al-Qayy\u016bm express two aspects of the One Life.<\/p>\n

Abu Hurairah reported that whenever the Prophet, peace be upon him, was faced with a serious difficulty, he would raise his head to the sky and supplicate, ”Subhan-Allah al-’Azim (glory be to Allah, the Mighty).” And when he implored seriously and strongly, he would say ”Ya Hayyu, Ya Qayyum (O Ever-Living One, O Self-Existing One upon Whom we all depend).”\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0(hadith of Tirmidhi)<\/i><\/p>\n

The attribute of al-Qayy\u016bm is also nicely described by the words of Acts 17:28 which say:<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 in Him we live and move and have our being<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The name al-Qayy\u016bm also has much the same meaning as the Hebrew phrase in Exodus 3:14 which is written as:<\/p>\n

\"hebrew\"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

and which is often translated as\u00a0I am that I am<\/em>, or\u00a0I am that which I have become<\/em>.<\/p>\n

As Sri Aurobindo wrote in his commentary of the Isha Upanishad:<\/p>\n

God is the only Being and all other existences are only His becomings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The word mustaq\u012bm, also from this same q-w-m root, means\u00a0straight, righteous,\u00a0upright, rising upwards or ascending<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\n

(Also written as al-qayyum, al-qayyoom, the Self-Existing: ya qayyum, ya qayyoom)<\/p>\n
