It is known that every name implies an attribute; does this necessitate that every attribute is derived from a name?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : We said that every name implies an attribute.

The Shaykh : Yes

The questioner : Is the attribute derived from a name?

The Shaykh : No, or is the name derived from it? For example, Al-‘Alim (The All-Knowing) is derived from ‘ilm (knowledge). Therefore, the correct opinion among the grammarians is that the root is the verbal noun (masdar), and the verb is derived from it, the active participle is derived from it, and the passive participle is derived from it. Yes.
