The answer

There is no evidence in the Qur’an or the authentic that "Al-Daim" (the Everlasting) is among the Beautiful Names of Allah or His attributes. The Names and attributes of Allah are tawqifiyyah (restrictive), meaning we affirm only what Allah has affirmed for Himself and what His Messenger has affirmed. The Name of Allah "Al-Akhir" (the Last), which is mentioned in the Qur’an and Sunnah, encompasses the meaning of perpetuity, i.e., the One who is not followed by extinction.
