Differences In Meaning Between Mawla And Rabb
Rabb is also used for father in Arabic. The father is called Rabbul Bait, the rabb of the house. God says in the Quran that all good names are for Him. We can call HIm with any good name. قُلِ ادْعُوا اللَّهَ أَوِ ادْعُوا الرَّحْمَٰنَ ۖ أَيًّا مَّا تَدْعُوا فَلَهُ الْأَسْمَاءُ الْحُسْنَىٰ ۚ Tell them: Whether you call Him by Allah or by Raḥmān, by whichever name you call him, all good names are His. (17: 110)
