وَعَلَى الْمَوْلُودِ لَهُ رِزْقُهُنَّ وَكِسْوَتُهُنَّ بِالْمَعْرُوفِ
“And upon the father of the child is their [i.e., the mothers'] provision and their clothing in an acceptable way.”
لِيُنفِقْ ذُو سَعَةٍ مِّن سَعَتِهِ ۖ وَمَن قُدِرَ عَلَيْهِ رِزْقُهُ فَلْيُنفِقْ مِمَّا آتَاهُ اللَّهُ
“Let the wealthy spend from his wealth, and he whose provision is restricted - let him spend from what Allah has given him.”
وَكَأَيِّن مِّن دَابَّةٍ لَّا تَحْمِلُ رِزْقَهَا اللَّهُ يَرْزُقُهَا وَإِيَّاكُمْ
“And how many creatures do not carry their provisions; Allah provides for them and for you.”
In Arabic abjad numerology, the letter Ra (ر) = 200, Za (ز) = 7, Qaf (ق) = 100. When reduced: 2+0+0+7+1+0+0 = 10 → 1+0 = 1. However, using the root Rizq directly: R(200)+Z(7)+Q(100) = 307 → 3+0+7 = 10 → 1+0 = 1. The primary number associated with Rizq-derived names is 1, representing unity with divine provision and new beginnings.
