What is meant by the Greatest Name in three surahs?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The Greatest Name of Allah is found in three surahs: Al-Baqarah, Al Imran, and Taha.
It is said to be in Ayatul Kursi from Al-Baqarah, the opening of Al Imran, and His saying, exalted be He, in Taha: ("And [all] faces will be humbled before the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence").
Al-Albani preferred that it is in Taha, His saying, exalted be He: ("Indeed, I am Allah. There is no deity except Me"), due to its concordance with some authentic hadiths.
