As-Samad

Name 68 / 99

الصَّمَدُ

The Eternal Refuge

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. ٱللَّهُ ٱلصَّمَدُ

    Allāh, the Eternal Refuge.2012

    Translator notes (1)
    1. 2012 He who is absolute, perfect, complete, essential, self-sufficient and sufficient to meet the needs of all creation; the one eternally and constantly required and sought, depended upon by all existence and to whom all matters will ultimately return.

As-Samad is name 68 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.
