ٱللَّهُ ٱلصَّمَدُ
Allah, the Eternal Refuge[1].

[1] He is absolute, perfect, complete, self-sufficient; the one eternally and constantly required and sought; all existence depend upon Him; all matters ultimately return to Him.
لَمۡ يَلِدۡ وَلَمۡ يُولَدۡ
He neither begets nor is He begotten,
وَلَمۡ يَكُن لَّهُۥ كُفُوًا أَحَدُۢ
and there is none comparable to Him.”[1]
