The One who is the truth, the real, and the truly-existing. The One whose essence is the only substance and the only reality.

The One whose essence is wisdom, justice, right, rightness. The One who is just, right, proper, correct. The One whose essence is unavoidable.

The One who acts in accord with the needs of every situation. The One through whom all righteousness, justice, and truth are revealed.

This name is used in the Qur'ān. For example, see 22:62
