Name 29 of 99
الْعَدْل

Al-Adl (الْعَدْل)

The Utterly Just

Linguistic Origins & Arabic Root

Root: ع - د - ل (A-D-L)

Etymology: Equilibrium, perfect balance, intrinsic justice.

Spelling & Pronunciation

Written: العدل — alif · lam · ayn · dal · lam.

The article: Arabic ayn (ع) is a moon letter, so the lam of the definite article ال stays audible. The Name keeps its Al- form, unlike the fourteen sun letters, which absorb the lam.

Also written: Al Adl — all romanisations of العدل, which has no single official spelling in the Latin alphabet.

Mention in the Holy Quran

“And the word of your Lord has been fulfilled in truth and in justice.”

— Surah Al-An'am (6:115)

Spiritual Significance & Contemplation

Al-Adl is Justice itself. Every law governing physics, morality, and spiritual destiny is founded upon divine balance, fairness, and proportion.
