The One who is the Originator of everything. He is the Creator and The One who gives distinguished characteristics to all of His Creation. Al-Bari’ knows His creation best. The Creator who has the Power to turn the entities.
Allah, Exalted be He, says, “He is Allah, the Creator, the Originator, the fashioner.” (Surat Al-Hashr, 59:24)
Allah causes things He has decreed to exist out of nothing and in a specific manner.

The One who creates form out of nothing. The One who creates with no model or similarity.

The One who evolves and re-creates that which exists, both physically and spiritually.

The One who sends new forms into existence.

The One who manifests that which is in perfect harmony and proportion, without blemish or fault.
 

From the root b-r-‘ which has the following classical Arabic connotations:

to create, to form out of nothing, to manifest
to create using pre-existing matter, evolve
to be individual, free and clear of another thing
to be free and clear of fault or blemish
 

This name is used in the Qur’ān. For example, see 59:24

The Qur’ān commentary of al-Baydāwi says that the primary meaning of the root b-r-‘ is to denote a thing’s becoming free and clear of another thing, either by being released or by being created.

The ancient Semitic roots point toward a manifestation or emanation which is the fruition of a great power, and which contains the potentiality of that which brought it into being.
