Al-Musawwir

This name in the Quran

Each ayah below was read in its context and confirmed by two independent reviews, on one question: does this word name Allah here. Where the two disagreed the ayah was dropped. Some of them carry the name as a verb or in another form rather than as the noun itself.

1. هُوَ ٱللَّهُ ٱلۡخَٰلِقُ ٱلۡبَارِئُ ٱلۡمُصَوِّرُۖ لَهُ ٱلۡأَسۡمَآءُ ٱلۡحُسۡنَىٰۚ يُسَبِّحُ لَهُۥ مَا فِي ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلۡأَرۡضِۖ وَهُوَ ٱلۡعَزِيزُ ٱلۡحَكِيمُ ۝٢٤

   He is Allāh, the Creator,¹⁶⁶⁶ the Producer,¹⁶⁶⁷ the Fashioner;¹⁶⁶⁸ to Him belong the best names.¹⁶⁶⁹ Whatever is in the heavens and earth is exalting Him. And He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.¹⁶⁷⁰

Al-Musawwir is name 13 of the 99. A plain search of the Arabic text finds this word form in one ayah. The one ayah listed above is a different measurement: what the app's reviewers accepted as naming Allah here, and it may carry the name as a verb or in another form, so the two numbers need not match.
