God's Names (Asma) and Attributes (Sifat) and Their Distinctions

What has been analyzed in the enquiry is to Show how multiplicity has been issued from the unity in the domain of Lordship's Names and Attributes. By the way of deliberating the problem of namable and attributive multiplicity and their differences, we criticized the viewpoints of theologians, philosophers and gnostics in this respect and have partially alluded to the nature of the Names and Attributes. It is mentioned that the Names and Attributes of Lordship in accordance with their essential and spiritual quest are appropriate to manifestation, upon which the world took step out from the unity to appearance of multiplicity. This essential quest will infinitely continue without any pause. For the reason that God’s essential completeness is infinite, the state and rulership of His Names and Attributes are also limitless, so that, at the end of the state of any Name, the other Name succeeds in doing its charge, that is, the prior Name has been returned to the exoteric one, which is superseding, begins to govern strongly upon the exoteric Name and continues its determined dominant. The Names and Attributes never stop functioning, and are continuously engaged to disclose the rulership of the Names and Attributes which are appropriate to their essential exigency and they have been introduced individually by the Holy Quran in their especial and apt station. It can be observed by intuition that the secrets of creation which are disclosed in the domain of sciences finally lead to exploration of one of God’s Names and Attributes.
