Concerning the
Greatest Name; this term refers both to “Alláh-u-Abhá” and to “Yá
Bahá’u’l-Abhá”. The first is a form of Bahá’í greeting and should be used,
while the other is an invocation, meaning “O Thou Glory of Glories!” These two
words are both referred to as the Greatest Name.

Effendi; ‘Messages to Australia and New Zealand’)
