What Muslim names meaning strength have in common

Strength in Arabic naming is rarely muscle. Izz is the strength of a thing that cannot be humiliated, which is why al-Aziz is a divine name and why Aziz also means beloved and precious: what is dear is what cannot be taken. Quwwah is capacity, the power to do. Shidda is firmness under pressure. A name tells you which kind it means.
