{{PortalArticle|image=|title=Naskh (Abrogation)|description=Naskh, or abrogation, is the process whereby Allah is said to replace or revise his plans. Previous scriptures, such as those of Jesus and Moses, are said to have been abrogated by the Quran just as the militant Medinan revelations of the Quran are said to have abrogated the mostly theological and moralistic Meccan revelations.

These names include everything from ''Allah'' (the God), ''al-Rahim'' (the Most Merciful), ''al-Noor'' (the Light) , and ''al-Walee'' (the Friend) to ''al-Mumeet'' (the Deadly), ''al-Qahhar'' (the Despot), ''al-Muntaqim'' (the Revenger), al-''Mutakabbir'' (the Arrogant), and ''al-Mudhil'' (the Humiliator)|title=99 names of Allah|image=|summary=}} | {{PortalArticle|image=|title=Naskh (Abrogation)|description=Naskh, or abrogation, is the process whereby Allah is said to replace or revise his plans.
