4. Al-Quddûs: The Holy
"All that is in the heavens and the earth magnifies Allah, the Sovereign, the Holy (Al-Quddûs)" (62:1).
The Holy is Allah's quality of being above every description of which human perception can perceive. It is beyond what the imagination can grasp. Even the innermost consciousness cannot pervade and thereby have an understanding of the Holy, the noble character trait manifested by Prophet Jesus to raise the dead to life. It is a quality unique unto Allah alone for it is to be without blemish, shortcoming, or weakness.
