why this backdrop?

if you are Muslim, you must definitely have come across these words that make up the backdrop of my blog, and you would have hopefully recognised that these are actually Names of Allah swt.

the reason, besides the wish for this counting as remembrance of Allah and using this blog invoking His Names, is that these words constitute the Arabic equivalent of the title (and description )of this blog.

al-Awwal : (superlative form i suppose) the First
al-Ahad: the only One
al-Waahid (active speech subject):  the One
al-Samad: Unity/Uno-ness. that which has One-ness
al-Haqq: the Truth
al-Mubdi: the Originator
al-Muqaddim: the Initiator.. that Who puts forward.

so the cause is always One, it is First, hence it forms the origins and it gives initiation to things, (hence it should be the Creator of them as well).. its always there so it is the First principle, the first Truth.

Glorified is the Being that Allah is. I witness that He is all that which these Names refer to. and He is Perfect in them.
