Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : What is the Greatest Name of Allah?

The Shaykh : The Greatest Name of Allah is: al-Hayy al-Qayyum (The Ever-Living, The Sustainer). You say: O Ever-Living, O Sustainer, O Possessor of Majesty and Honor. These two names, al-Hayy al-Qayyum, are mentioned in three places in the Book of Allah:
It is mentioned in the Verse of the Throne:
Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence الله لا اله الا هو الحي القيوم
[Al-Baqarah 2:255]
.
It is mentioned at the beginning of Surat al-Imran:
Allah - there is no deity except Him, the Ever-Living, the Sustainer of [all] existence الله لا اله الا هو الحي القيوم
[Al-Baqarah 2:255]
.
It is mentioned in Surat Ta-Ha in the words of the Exalted:
And I bowed my face to the Ever-Living, the Sustainer وعنت الوجه للحي القيوم
.
