Frequently Asked Questions
Are there only 99 Names of Allah or are there more?
Scholars of Islam agree that Allah SWT has countless names and attributes known only to Him. The Hadith refers specifically to ninety-nine names for which whoever memorizes and acts upon them is promised Paradise.
What does it mean to “enumerate” (Ahsaha) the names?
Enumerating the names involves three stages: 1) Memorizing their words, 2) Comprehending their meanings, and 3) Calling upon Allah through them in worship and Dua.
Can a Muslim name their child with these names?
Names exclusive to Allah (such as Al-Khaliq, Ar-Rahman, Al-Quddus) must always be preceded by “Abdul” (Servant of), such as Abdul Rahman or Abdul Malik.
