Is it permissible to use the word "Al-Uẓmā" (the Greatest/Mighty) for a section in a forum, such as "The Section of the Mighty Islamic Network"?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no objection to describing some things as "great" or "supreme" (العظمى), as this has been mentioned in the Sunnah of the Prophet and in some sayings of the Companions, such as Ali ibn Abi Talib's statement about people returning from Hajj: "The day of the great دفع" (Yawm Daf'at An-Nas Al-'Uthma). The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, also described "the great battle" (Al-Malhamah Al-'Uthma), "the great intercession" (Ash-Shafa'ah Al-'Uthma), and "the great guardianship/authority" (Al-Wilayah Al-'Uthma).
