* This presentation and meditation on the 99 beautiful names is offered through the compilation and work of Jean Pierre & Shihana, both mureeds in the Sufi Ruhaniat International, in the tradition of Hazrat Inayat Khan & Murshid Samuel Lewis. Many excerpts of documents have never been published before. Any error, omission or misrepresentation is the sole responsibility of the authors shortcoming and we ask for Allah's continuous forgiveness (Ya Ġaffār).
