Allah, Exalted be He, says, “He is the Irresistible, [reigns Supreme) Above His servants.” (Surat Al-An’aam, 6:61); Say: “Allah is the Creator of everything, and He is the One, the All- Dominant.’ ” (Surat Ar-Ra’d, 13:16)
Allah overcomes all obstacles and prevails over all His creation. Everything is subjected to His will and authority. These names include the attributes of power, honour and omnipotence.

Benefits of belief in these names include the following:

Admitting one’s weakness before Allah, the All-Dominant, the Irresistible. This requires that we should humble ourselves before Allah and refrain from behaving arrogantly towards His slaves.
The verse “He is the Irresistible, [reigns Supreme] Above His servants” indicates that Allah, Exalted be He, is high above His creation.
