وَلِلَّهِ
الْأَسْمَاءُ
الْحُسْنَى
فَادْعُوهُ
بِهَا
وَذَرُوا
الَّذِينَ
يُلْحِدُونَ
فِي
أَسْمَائِهِ
سَيُجْزَوْنَ
مَا
كَانُوا
يَعْمَلُونَ

To Allah belong the Best Names, so supplicate Him by them, and abandon those who commit sacrilege in His names. Soon they shall be requited for what they used to do.
— Ali Quli Qarai
The most beautiful names belong to Allah: so call on him by them; but shun such men as use profanity in his names: for what they do, they will soon be requited.
