الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ
Segala puji bagi Allah, Tuhan semesta alam.
Surah Al-Fatihah (1:2)
ٱلْحَمْدُ pujian
لِلَّهِ bagi Allah
رَبِّ Tuhan/Pemelihara
ٱلْعَٰلَمِينَ alam semesta
Tafsir Al-Hamdulillah
Ibnu Jarir menuturkan bahwa makna Alhamdulillah ialah segala syukur hanyalah dipersembahkan kepada Allah semata, bukan kepada apa yang disembah selain-Nya, juga bukan kepada semua mahkluknya, alasannya karena nikmat-Nya yang di berikan kepada semua hamba dan mahluknya tidak dapat dihitung dan unlimitied. Nikmat itu antara lain tersedianya semua sarana untuk taat kepada-Nya, kemampuan semua organ tubuh yang sanggup melaksanakan perintahnya, dan riski yang diberikan kepada semua mahluknya, oleh karena itu segala pujian hanya untuk dan bagi Allah swt dari awal sampai akhir.
Meaning of the word 'ar-Rabb' in the Book and the Sunnah
The root word of the word, 'ar-Rabb' is 'rabba-yarubbu' meaning, 'to nurture something from one form to another up to its final form. It is said, 'he raised him' (rabbahu), they raised him (rabbaahu), etc. Thus, metaphorically the word, 'rabb' is used only for the doer.
'Ar-Rabb' is not said in its absolute sense (i.e., without limitations) except for Allah, the One, Who rectifies the affairs of all creatures. Reflect upon His saying, '(Rabbul-Alameen) the Lord of the Alameen (mankind, jinn and all that exists).' [Soorah al-Fatiha (1): 2] and, '(Rabbukum) Your Lord and (Rabbu-Aabaikum) the Lord of your ancient fathers!' [Soorah ash-Shoorah (26): 26]
The word, 'ar-Rabb' is not said for anyone other than Allah, except with an adjective, for example, 'Rabbud-dar' meaning, master of the house, 'Rabbul-Faras' meaning, owner of the horse, as Allah related about Yusuf (alaihi as-salaam), 'Mention me to your lord (i.e. your king, so as to get me out of the prison).' But Shaytan made him forget to mention it to his Lord.' [Soorah Yusuf (12): 42]
'Return to your lord and ask him.' [Soorah Yusuf (12): 50]
'As for one of you, he (as a servant) will pour out wine for his lord (king or master) to drink.' [Soorah Yusuf (12): 41]
Allah's Messenger (sallallahu alahi wa-sallam) said about the lost camel, 'until its rabb (owner) finds it.' [Agreed upon]
Thus, it has become clear from the above that the word, 'ar-Rabb' (without limitations) is applicable (only) to Allah with or without any adjective. Thus, it can be said, 'ar-Rabb' (the Lord i.e., in the absolute sense), and (in the restricted form) Rabbul-Alameen (the Lord of the mankind, jinn, etc.) or Rabbun-Nas (the Lord of mankind). The word, 'ar-Rabb' cannot be said to anyone other than Allah without an adjective (in order to limit its meaning) like, Rabbud-dar (lord of the house), Rabbul-Bait (owner of the house), and Rabbul-Ibl (owner of the camel).
And the meaning of, 'Rabbul-Alameen' (Lord of the mankind, jinn, etc.) is their Creator, Owner and the One, Who rectifies and nurtures them by sending His Messengers, and revealing His Books, and rewarding them for their righteous deeds. Al-Allamah Ibnul-Qayyim (rahimahullah) said, 'Verily, Rububiyah includes commanding the slaves and prohibiting them, and rewarding the good doers with good and reprimand (the evil doers) with punishment.' [See, Madarijus-Salikeen (1/8)] This is the reality of Rububiyah.
