allaah

This is God’s name pertaining to His Essence (Ism-e-Zaat) which includes all His other names of Beauty (Jamaah), of Majesty (Jallah), of Action (Fa’ili) and of Attributes (Sifaatt). It is a combination of all of God.s names (jaamia). It is the first and foremost name of the Divine Being, and all other names are the illumination (tajalli) of its varied manifestations. This name (Allah) has two aspects or facets (aitbaaraat): firstly it is apparent in every name of God, secondly it includes every name of God. Consequently, the relationship of the name, Allah, with other names, is like the relationship of Oneness (Wahdat) of God’s Being with the multiplicity of creation. Similarly, this name is related to all other names as the aggregate whole is related to its parts.
