Here you will find the ninety nine beautiful names and  attributes of Allah and their meaning to assist you in getting to know the Creator, Allah the Most High

Allah has 99 names and attributes, which we can call upon any of them depending on our needs. For instance, if we want to ask Allah for forgiveness we should therefore call Him by Al-Ghaffar (the Most-Forgiving) and Ar-Rahman, Ar-Raheem (the All-Merciful, the Entirely-Merciful). If we were to be asking Allah to strengthen our iman (faith) and guide us, we would then call upon Him by Al-Mu'min (the Granter of Faith and Security).  

“And all the Most Beautiful Names belong to Allah, so call on Him by them...”

(Quran 7:180) 

“Allah has ninety-nine names. i.e. one hundred minus one, and whoever knows them will go to Paradise.”

[Sahih Al-Bukhari]

9. Al-Jabbar

The Absolute Compeller, Omnipotent is Allah. SubhanAllah [Glory be to Allah]. Not only does it mean the One Who Restores but it also means the One Who Restoers Completely. It appears 10 times in the Qur'an, but is only used once for Allah SWT in the above verse [59:23]. When Jabbar is used in the Quran for people it is often rather negative, if a human uses Jabbar as ' one who restores' it is negative because of their negative oppressiveness in order to mend things.
