Al-Basir
البصير
Name of Allah
The All-Seeing — sight that nothing is hidden from.
Overview
Al-Basir — The All-Seeing: sight that nothing is hidden from.
The form البصير occurs in 9 ayahs (for example 6:50, 11:24, 13:16). Those passages are listed below, found by matching the Arabic word form rather than the translation.
The enumeration of ninety-nine names comes from a hadith, not from the Quran, and the lists differ between narrations. IslamicGraph records the traditional set and shows, for each name, the ayat where that exact Arabic form occurs — so what rests on the Quran and what rests on the enumeration stay visible as different things.
