The One Who brings things into existence after their non-existence. Who invents and innovates without a prior model. And then bestows upon them their characteristics of movement and other qualities. He is the One Who invents whatever the eyes can see and perfects their creation. The One who brings everything from non-existence to existence.
Allah, Exalted be He, says, “He is Allah, the Creator, the Originator, the Fashioner…” (Surat Al-Hashr, 59:24); “Truly, your Lord is the Creator, the All-Knowing.” (Surat Al-Hijr, 15:86)
Al-Khaaliq is the One who creates things out of nothing and with no precedence. The name Al-Khallaaq is the intensive form of Al-Khaaliq, which indicates that He increases in creation what He pleases and in a perfect manner.

The One who determines and creates according to the proper measure and proportion of each thing. The One who plans and determines how, when and where to create.

The One whose works are perfectly suited, appropriate, fitting and proper. The One who creates something from nothing. The One who creates both the inner and the outer in just proportions.

The One who brings things into existence from a state of non-existence. The One who has the power to change things back and forth between the states of existing and non-existing.

From the root kh-l-q which has the following classical Arabic connotations:

to measure accurately
to determine the proper measure or proportion for something
to proportion one thing according to another
to create something based on a pattern or model which one has devised
to bring a thing into existence from non-existence
