Is Time Created? Or is it from the Names of God (Allah)? By Imam Ibn Baz 21/12/2025 Abu Khadeejah Abdul-Wahid Aqeedah, Tawheed Comments Off on Is Time Created? Or is it from the Names of God (Allah)? By Imam Ibn Baz Is Time Created? Or is it from the Names of God (Allah)? Answer by Al-Imām ʿAbdul-ʿAzeez Ibn Bāz (Allah’s mercy be upon him): No. Rather, He is the creator of time (ad-dahr). Ad-dahr is time itself, and Allah is its Creator. That is why He, the Mighty and Majestic, said: “I turn its night and its day.” Question: But Allah says, “I am ad-dahr”? (i.e. in a hadeeth). Answer: Meaning, I am the Creator of time — just as occurs in the [same] hadeeth: “I turn its night and its day.” This is the wording of the hadith: “I turn its night and its day.” Question: Then, is time one of the Attributes of Allah? Answer: No. Ad-dahr is the created thing — it is time.
