• “Glory be to Allah, exalted above all that they associate with Him”: this is an all-encompassing declaration of His transcendence from every description uttered by those who set up partners with Him and have not accorded Him His true measure.

• “He is Allah, the Creator” of every created thing.

• “al-Bāriʾ” (the Originator) who, in His wisdom and kindness, brings every being into existence.

• “al-Muṣawwir” (the Fashioner) who, in the perfect beauty of His workmanship, gives form to all that exists. He granted each thing its distinctive form, then guided every creature—and every limb—to the function for which it was made and made ready.

• Thus Allah, exalted is He, stands alone in these attributes that relate to creation; no one shares them with Him. This is one of the proofs of His oneness: the One who alone creates, originates, and fashions is the only One entitled to worship, to the utmost love, and to absolute submission.

• “His are the Most Beautiful Names.” In the sound hadith: “Indeed Allah has ninety-nine names, one hundred less one; whoever enumerates them will enter Paradise” (1)—that is, he who commits their wording to memory, preserves them, understands them, and worships Allah by means of them.

• He, exalted be He, possesses every beautiful name and every attribute of majesty and perfection; therefore He deserves from His servants every form of reverence, exaltation, love, and humility.

• “Whatever is in the heavens and the earth glorifies Him”—whether responsible beings, animals, trees, or inanimate objects. “There is not a thing but glorifies His praise, yet you do not understand their glorification; truly He is Ever-Forbearing, Ever-Forgiving” (Q 17:44).

• “And He is the Almighty, the All-Wise” in both His creation and His legislation.
