The praiseworthy names that He bound to the believers and how He associated them with Himself?
The censured names, and Allah cursed them in His Book and disassociated from them and from their deeds, their partisans, and their followers.....
I said: "May I be your ransom, what are these praised names that He assigned to the believers, and how did He pair them with Himself, and in which place in the Book of Allah? Explain it to me and clarify it by your grace upon your servant so that I may understand it?"
He said: "They are upon five boundaries:
As for the first boundary: it is every name that Allah chose for Himself, prepared, fashioned, took, and selected, and He did not grant it to anyone besides Him, according to the saying of the Exalted:
{And to Him belongs the highest attribute in the heavens and the earth} (Ar-Rum 27).
And the saying of the Exalted: {To Allah belongs the command before and after} (Ar-Rum 4).
And the saying of the Exalted: {Then to Allah belongs the conclusive argument} (Al-An'am 149).
And the saying of the Exalted: {And to Allah belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth} (An-Nur 42).
