He is the First and the Last, the Ascendant and the Intimate, and He is, of all things, Knowing.

He is the First; nothing existed before Him. He is the Last; nothing will exist after Him. He is the Apparent; there is nothing above Him. He is the Intimate; there is nothing without Him, and He knows everything, He does not miss anything.
