The names of the holy five are derived from the names of God

Shaykh Saduq has, through his chains of narrators, reported from Ibne Abbas that he said: Messenger of Allah (s) said:

When Almighty Allah created Adam (a), blew his soul into him, the angels prostrated before him, Allah married him to Hazrat Hawwa (s) and settled them in His Garden. Adam (a) raised his eyes and glanced at the Arsh. He saw five lines inscribed there.

Adam said: O Lord, what is written here?

Almighty Allah replied: These are names through whose mediation if My creatures invoke Me, I would definitely accept the request.

Adam (a) said: O God, I adjure you by their rank and position, please tell me their names.

Almighty Allah said: Firstly, I am Mahmud (Praised) and he is Muhammad. Secondly I am Aala (Lofty) and this is Ali. Thirdly I am Fatir (Originator) and this is Fatima. Fourthly I am Mohsin and this is Hasan. Fifthly I am the doer of favor and this is Husain.

It is narrated from Huzaifah bin Usaid Ghiffari who said: When Hasan bin Ali bade farewell to Muawiyah and left for Medina, I accompanied him in his journey, and there was a loaded camel in front of him, not separating from him wherever he headed. One day I said to him, ‘May I be sacrificed for you, O Abu Muhammad! This luggage, you do not separate from it wherever you are headed.’ He said: ‘O Huzaifah! Do you know what it is?’ I said, ‘No.’ He said: ‘This is the register.’ I said, ‘A register of what?’ He said: ‘Register of our Shias wherein are their names.’ I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you! Show me my name.’ He said: ‘Come in the morning.’ He said: ‘I went to him in the morning and with me was a nephew of mine, and he was literate and I could not read. He said: ‘What have you come for in the morning?’ I said, ‘The need which you promised me.’ He said: ‘Who is that youth with you?’ I said, ‘A nephew of mine, and he is literate, and I am not.’ He (the narrator) said, ‘He said to me: ‘Be seated!’ So, I sat down. He said: ‘Get me the middle register.’ I came with it.’ The youth looked and there were names listed. While he was reading, he said, ‘O uncle! Here is my name!’ I said, ‘May your mother be bereft of you! Look where my name is.’ He turned a page, then said, ‘There is your name.’ So, we cheered, and the youth was martyred with Husain bin Ali” Reference: Basairud Darajaat, Pg. 172, Tr. 6, Miracles of Ahlulbayt (a.s. ) - Vol. 2.Pg.70
