The Shaykh : The meaning of our saying that the names of Allah are from the category of *insha'* is that *insha'* is the establishment of a thing as a sign and indicator for a specific thing. As for this, it is not for us to create a name from the names of Allah for Allah, unlike *khabar* (information), which is broader.

The Shaykh : The one to whom it is attributed is not this; this is a description.
