He is the One, higher than everything in His kingdom by His power of control and way above everyone for “His perfections”: the only One free from shortcomings and mistakes but perfect in all His qualities and actions.

As we know the ظاهر is derived from ظ ه ر which is the back. It is on the outer side of the body. On the other hand, باطن is derived from ب ط ن which is a word in Arabic for the belly.

The belly is part of the body that carries the internal organs and it is the hidden foundation for nourishment, strength, and growth for the whole body.

Likewise, the innermost hidden source of strength, motivation, and support that never leaves us alone is the presence of our Rab, which is hidden yet the most powerful & reliable for all who rely upon Him.
