A form of Al-Majīd emphasising nobility of essence: a station of glory that requires nothing external. In some classical lists this is enumerated separately; in others it is merged with #48.
Sources for this entry
The Arabic name and its enumeration follow the traditional list in Sunan al-Tirmidhī (§3507). The concise explanation reflects the consensus classical understanding taught in Al-Ghazālī's Al-Maqṣad al-Asnā and Ibn Kathīr's tafsīr. Qur'anic references are locations where the name appears in the Mushaf.
