Note: Not all the qualities listed in “The Meanings of
the Names of Our Lord” have remedies listed with
the quality. The names from this book differ from
the names listed and in spelling from those in
“Children Around the Table Of Allah”. I could not
list all the qualities without having more than 99 so
this list is composed of all the qualities with remedies
and other qualities from both books. I also listed
names together that seemed very similar even though
this is not the same order as they were given in the
books.
