What Is the Relationship Between the Hidden Name and the Greatest Name?
verified
Concise response by Master Ali Saei (Abdullah Mishkat):
The rank of the “Hidden Name” is higher than that of the “Greatest Name,” and even the “Chosen Name.” The term *ism musta’thir* derives from the root ء-ث-ر, meaning “share,” “remnant,” or “grace,” and conveys the sense of something held exclusively and reserved. The full reality of these Names is disclosed to God alone and belongs to the realm of the “Absolute Unseen.”
