Explanation of Supreme name of God, concentrated on view of Fakhr Razi and Allameh Tabatabai

According to the Quranic verses and Tradition (Hadith), Devine names have mediatory rule in all aspects of the cosmos, and the universe receives its existence from Allah through the Divine names and attributes. It is because the universe follows a cause and effect system in which the affairs are carried out by using the means. Divine names and attributes have degrees; some are constricted, and some others are general and broad. They consequently lead to the greatest name of Allah, i.e. the Supreme Name, which contains the meanings of all the other names. Many words have been said about the reality of the Supreme Name and its effects, the ways to achieve it, and who its beneficiaries are. Some consider it as category of words and some others relates it to the spiritual reality. There are different opinions about the true meaning of the Supreme Name. This paper analyzes different ideas in this regard, and particularly investigates the beliefs and opinions of Allameh Tabatabai and Fakhr Razi.
