“We (the ) are the Most Beautiful Names of Allāh by which when Almighty Allāh is asked, He Responds.[^11]” And it is also reported from Imām al-Bāqir (‘a) that: نَحْنُ الأَسْمَآءُ الْحُسْنـى الَّذِينَ لاََ يَقْبَلُ اللٌّهُ مِنَ الْعِبَادِ عَمَلاً إِلاَّ بِمَعْرِفَتِنَا.

“We are the Most Beautiful Names of Allāh, and without knowing us, Allāh does not accept any deed of His servants.[^12]” In a sermon which he delivered on the first day of the Holy month of Ramadān, Imām ‘Alī (‘a) while addressing the fasting ones said: أَيُّهَا الصَّائِمُ تَدَبَّرْ أَمْرَكَ، فَإِنَّكَ فِي شَهْرِكَ هٌذَا ضَيْفُ رَبِّكَ، أُنْظُرْ كَيْفَ تَكُونُ
