That is, the Name Allah is the possessor of every Caliber individually and it is the all-inclusive manifest of the total Names and this also is the clear argument favoring its being the Zaati (personal). Third argument is this that Arabian exercise derivation of every Name but derivation of this Name is not done nor this Name is derived from any other Name nor any other Name is its offshoot. Fourth argument is this that the base of all the Fundamental Elements of Islam is based upon this Name. Hence, by declaration and acknowledgement through the Name, a person becomes Muslim. That is, in the Kalimah-e-Tayyeb Laaa-Ilaaha Ill-Allahu Muhammad-ur-Rasoolu-Allah, the declaration and Asbaat (proving on) of this same Name is done and in all Kalimaat e Tayyebaat like Kalimah-e-Shahadat, Kalimah e Tamjeed, Kalimah-e-Tauheed and Kalimah-e-Tayyeb, this Name is remembered and all the verses of the Holy Quran (excluding Surah At-Tauba 09) start with this Name, that is, 'In the Name of Allah the Beneficent the Merciful' and due to the recitation of before starting any job the Auspiciousness (and blessing) is gained because of this Name. And in the start of Assalaat (Prayers), we say Allahu Akbar in Takbeer e Tahreema and remember this Name and at time of battling against Kuffaar also we say Allahu Akbar and seek help through this Name. And when a child is born, this Name is read in his ear and this Name is announced when Azaan (call for Prayers) is given. And the Surah e Fatihah, Ayat ul Kursi (2:55), Surah Al Ikhlaas (112) and other Quranic Surahs have excellence because of this Name. In short, all the clear Verses of the Holy Quran and the Kalimaat e Tayyebaat have value, height, respect and honor because of this Name. And this Name is the Personal Name and the Ism-e-Azam.

To every Prophet of previous times was granted one Name of Caliber which bore the weight of Name of the Essence as per their personal capacity and that very Name was the fount of Beneficences and perfections for them and covering that very Name and its Kashf of Anwaar was the ultimate accession for them and Allah Almighty turned His countenance to each Prophet and every Wali of his nation when they cried before Him at the hours of praying and seeking His help in predicament.

When Allah Almighty appointed our overlord Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam His Prophet, He knead his nature and matter with the Noor of the Water of Elixir of the Essence.

This day I perfected your religion for you and completed My favor unto you, and have chosen for you as religion Al Islam (5:3)

His highness was crowned with the Crown of the Perfected Religion and he was awarded the Robe of Utmost Blessing and was given the Garment of Eternal Reza. And since his Noor was of the Essence, therefore, to him and to his Ummat, the Name of the Essence was favored. Further, since his Appointment has ended the chain of prophecy and he was made the Khatam ul Anbiya and his religion and his Scripture abrogated all previous religions and Scriptures, same like this with the rise of the sun of the Name-Allah-the-Essence (Ism-e-Allah-Zaat ) shone on him, the light of all Stars of the Names of Abilities and the light of all the Moons of the Names of Attributes became lightless and extinct and all the paths of the previous Names of Faith of the past were closed thereby so much so that even those languages also vanished and died and that (efficacious) effectiveness (and the impact) and acceptance that was attached with those Names at the times of prayers and cries in the hours of need also ceased in onetime. See you not that when a new king sits on throne, all coins, stamps and stamp papers issued in the names of previous king are cancelled and coins etcetera in the name of this king are legalized. Though this Name was present in the older times in its partial and changed form and was illuminating the bodies of the quarters of (tangible) world like the sun that shines on all world with its invisible rays from the horizons of nonentity but it showed its original and real form at that time and illuminated with the electric Anwaar of the Essence when his blessed indispensable body set its step in the place of creation from the Lamakaan. As the land of Khana-e-Kaba had been the respected and dignified since ever but in the blessed era of the Holy Prophet of Allah Hazrat Muhammad Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam, its honor and sacntity rose to the most perfected level and in the same way, every part of Faith and Religion touched the highest glories during his blessed time.
