31
وَعَلَّمَ آدَمَ الأَسماءَ كُلَّها ثُمَّ عَرَضَهُم عَلَى المَلائِكَةِ فَقالَ أَنبِئوني بِأَسماءِ هٰؤُلاءِ إِن كُنتُم صادِقينَ

And He taught Adam all names1, then He presented them (things) before the angels and said, “Inform Me of the names of these if you are right (in your objection to Adam being made the successor on earth).”
  • A name normally indicates the purpose or use of a thing.
