Explanation of the 99 Perfect Names Of ALLAH GOD
Praise be to God the Creator of the world, the One Who exists without beginning, without end, without location, without a “how” and Who does not depend on time. Nothing resembles Him in anyway and He hears and sees everything without organs. Whatever you imagine, God is different from that. May the elevation in degree and preservation of his community of what he fears for it, be granted to our master MuHammad Al-‘Amin, the Honest One, who called for following Islam, the religion of truth, the religion of all the Prophets: of the first, Adam, to the last MuHammad.
Allâh ta`âlâ says in the honorable Qur’ân:
﴿ لَيْسَ كَمِثْلِهِ شَىءٌ ﴾
(layça kamithlihi chay’)
which means: « There is nothing like Him. » [sûrat Ash- Shûrah, ‘âyah 11] Imam Abu Hanîfah said: « The Creator does not resemble His creatures. »
Allâh ta`âlâ says in the honorable Qur’ân:
﴿ وَللهِ الأَسْمَاء الْحُسْنَى فَادْعُوهُ بِهَا ﴾
which means: « Allâh has the perfect names, invoke Him by these names. » [ sûrat Al-â`râf, ‘âyah 180]
The Prophet MuHammad, Sallallâhu `alayhi wa sallam, said:
« إن لله تعالى تسعةً وتسعينَ اسمًا مائةً إلا واحدًا من أحصاها دَخَلَ الجنةَ »
which means: « Allâh has 99 names whoever knows them by heart, believing their meaning, will enter to Paradise. » [narrated by Al-Bukhâriyy and Mouslim].
And narrated by At-tirmîdhiyy according to Abû Hourayrah that the Prophet MuHammad, Sallallâhu `alayhi wa sallam, said:
