The world of Al- (with an open lam) refers to what creatures observe, contrasting with the world of Al-Ghayb (the unseen), the knowledge of which God has reserved for Himself. As for 'Ālim Al-Shahadah (with a broken lam), Ibn Kathir explained its meaning in his interpretation of the verse: "Knower of the unseen and the seen, He is the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful."
