20:14 The use of “I-Form”, in which the pronoun inni or anâ is translated as “I,” is called the “I-ness” (inniya or anniya) of Allâh (cf. 28:30; 27:9; 20:39). The use of first person necessitates the existence of another. Mostly we find “We-Form” (mâhiyyat al-Haqq) and “He-Form” (Huwiya) in His verses.
