       Call upon Allâh or call upon Rahmân:
by whatever name ye call upon Him (it is well):
 for to Him belong the Most Beautiful Names.
                                             Qur'ân 17:110, tr Yusuf Ali



                     The Beautiful Names of Allâh


                                             


The glorious name Allâh, subhâna wa ta'âlâ, is the greatest and most beautiful of all the names.
The name Allâh encompasses all of the divine names and attributes of perfection.

The name Allâh is the Arabic proper name of the One, while other names, descriptions and
titles such as the ninety-nine beautiful names are considered to be attributes of Allâh.

The essence of all attributes, descriptions and names are unified in this one name, Allâh, which
denotes the sacred perfection of love, harmony and beauty.



with love,
        wahiduddin
