Islamic architecture, as an original feature of design, should be associated with the levels of human presence in space. This research with an analytical and practical method by examining the available verses and hadiths and documents and sources, by following the divine names as the attributes of God in human existence, tries to find solutions in architecture by following the intellect, which is part of the absolute intellect. A human is modeled after the divine architecture (creation) with the perception (concepts) of the divine names and the main goal of the current research is to extract architectural solutions from the divine names in the field of theoretical foundations of architecture in order to influence the foundations of architectural design. The question is about how to use divine names in human life and especially in the field of architectural expertise, which is the main goal of this research. The results of the research show that flexibility in architecture is not a new and new issue, that the modern era is the creator of it, but it is in the existence of the world, so flexibility is considered a must for architecture,

The texts of Ahl-e Haq, especially Name-ye Sarandjām, use a symbolic language to express the esoteric teachings of the sect. In these texts visible elements, such as colors, natural phenomena and other objects have a symbolic function. By surveying and deciphering these symbols, the beliefs and practices of Ahl-e Haq would be recognized properly. In fact, their symbols, as we can see in other esoteric tradition, try to connect the objective world to the subjective realm and are means of expressing their mystical experiences. There are certain elements of ancient Iranian culture and Sufi teachings in their works, so the sect has a syncretic nature.

Talking about the importance of names, particularly God’s names, is a complicated issue. In ancient era the name of a person or a deity was equal to his/her identity, therefore, knowledge of names had a magical function. The subject of name has been markedly expressed in Old Testament. God has revealed there by several names, such as El, El Shaddai, Elohim, Adonai and YHWH. Some of these names are very ancient and others are of Semitic origin. El is a common term in all Semitic tribes and YHWH is the personal name of the God of Israel. Calling the personal name of God was taboo and therefore considered as a great sin. So for expressing reverence the sacred name was replaced by the term Adonai (Lord). Every name in Old Testament reveals different aspect of the God of Israel, for example, El is a compassionate God, and Elohim is the Lord of Judgment. In some passages YHWH is the God of mercy, while in others is portrayed as an avenger. This essay, with a descriptive-historical approach, tries to shed light on this issue.
