99 names of Allah


The 99 Names of Allah, also known as The 99 Most Beautiful Names of God (Arabic: أسماء الله الحسنى transliteration: Asma’ Allah al-Ḥusná), are the names of God which Muslims believe are revealed in the Qur’an and Sunnah.
There is, according to Hadith, a special group of 99 names but no enumeration of them. Thus the exact list is not agreed upon, and the names of God (as adjectives, word constructs, or otherwise) exceed 99 in the Qur’an and Sunnah.
In one Islamic tradition, the Prophet Muhammad used to call God by all His Names:
“اللهم إني ادعوك بأسمائك الحسنى كلها”
“O God, I invoke You with all of Your Beautiful Names.”
Narrated by Ibn Majah, book of Du`a; and by Imam Malik in his Muwatta’, Kitab al-Shi`r
Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: “Verily, there are ninety-nine names of God, one hundred minus one. He who enumerates [and believes in them and the one God behind]them would get into Paradise.”
Sahih Muslim, Vol. 4, no. 1410

List Of Names

The Qur’an refers to the attributes of God as God’s “most beautiful names” (Arabic: al-asmāʾ al-ḥusnā) (see [Qur'an 7:180], [Qur'an 17:110], [Qur'an 20:8], [Qur'an 59:24])). According to Gerhard Böwering, “They are traditionally enumerated as 99 in number to which is added as the highest name (al-ism al-aʿẓam), the supreme name of God, Allāh. The locus classicus for listing the divine names in the literature of qurʾānic commentary is [Qur'an 17:110], “Call upon God, or call upon the merciful; whichsoever you call upon, to him belong the most beautiful names,” and also [Qur'an 59:22] q 59:22-4, which includes a cluster of more than a dozen divine epithets.”
Islamic theology makes a distinction between the attributes of God and the divine essence.
