Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, father, the questioner asks: Are al-Qawiyy (the All-Powerful) and al-Matin (the Firm) among the names of Allah the Exalted, given that they are mentioned in the position of a name in His saying (Glorified and Exalted is He):
Indeed, it is Allah who is the [continual] Provider, the firm possessor of strength.إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الرَّزَّاقُ ذُو الْقُوَّةِ الْمَتِينُ
[Adh-Dhariyat 51:58]
, or are they among His attributes (Exalted and Majestic is He)?

Answer:
No, they are among His names. Al-Qawiyy is among His names (Glorified and Exalted is He), and al-Matin is among His names (Glorified and Exalted is He). Yes.
