Is repeating Allah’s Names and reflecting on them allowed?

Salam Aleykoum, I’ve been saying “Ya Mu’min” over and over, just to feel a sense of safety, and I think about how Allah grants me that inner peace. Is this practice okay? Honestly, I find it really soothing and it helps me focus. Sometimes I even make du’a while I’m repeating it-it’s not mindless repetition, you know?

MashaAllah, that’s beautiful. The scholars say reflecting on Allah’s names is highly recommended. Keep at it, brother.

That feeling of safety is exactly what Allah promises those who remember Him. You’re doing fine akhi, keep seeking that peace.

Wait, folks sometimes confuse repetition with Sufi chanting. But you made your intention clear, so no worries. Your soul knows what it needs.

I’ve been doing similar with “Ya Razzaq” when stressed about money. It’s not some ritual, just heartfelt dhikr. Big difference.
