الرافِع
الرافِع اللہ تعالیٰ کے صفاتی ناموں میں سے ہے، جس کا مطلب ہے 'بلند کرنے والا'۔ وہ اپنے نیک بندوں کے درجات بلند فرماتا ہے اور آسمانوں کو بغیر ستونوں کے بلند کیا۔ یہ نام ایمان والوں کو یاد دلاتا ہے کہ حقیقی سربلندی اللہ کی قربت میں ہے۔
الرَّافِع
الرافع هو اسم من أسماء الله الحسنى، ومعناه 'الذي يرفع شأن أوليائه' و 'رافع السموات'. يذكر المؤمن بأن العزة الحقيقية تكمن في التقوى والإيمان بالله.
"يَرْفَعِ اللَّهُ الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا مِنكُمْ وَالَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْعِلْمَ دَرَجَاتٍ"
It is permissible to name a child 'Abd al-Rafi' (Servant of the Exalter), but naming someone 'Al-Rafi' alone is generally debated as it is a specific attribute of Allah. 'Abdul Rafi' is the recommended form.
