It did not happen for Him to have an attribute or a name, because if an attribute of His attributes happened to Him, or was removed from Him, He would have been incomplete before that attribute occurred and after its removal, which is impossible.

Because one who had knowledge in eternity was knowledgeable in eternity; He has always been knowledgeable by His knowledge (which is an attribute in eternity), meaning in the ancient, and able by His power (which is an attribute in eternity), and speaking by His speech (and the speech is of Allah, the Exalted). He is ancient, not their speech. Moses heard the speech of Allah, the Exalted, as in His saying: 'And Allah spoke to Moses, speaking.' And Allah was a speaker, and Moses was not spoken to.
