Why 99 Names Of Allah Are Important

Muslims trust in Allah because of all His lovely names and attributes. All of Allah’s names have distinct meanings and benefits that might benefit us in our daily lives.

Muslims chant Allah’s names on a daily basis for protection, good health, comfort, wealth, removal of poverty, success, attainment of respect, and acceptance of requests.

The Holy Quran continually reveals all of Allah’s names in order for us to grasp who He is. Knowing and living by all of Allah’s names is sacred and blessed.

“He is Allah: the Creator, the Inventor, the Shaper. He ˹alone˺ has the Most Beautiful Names. Whatever is in the heavens and the earth ˹constantly˺ glorifies Him. And He is the Almighty, All-Wise.”

[Quran 59:24]

“Allah—there is no god ˹worthy of worship˺ except Him. He has the Most Beautiful Names.”

[Quran 20:8]

Our dearest Prophet (peace be upon him) has also told us about the names of Allah in these hadiths.

Narrated Abu Huraira:

Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “Allah has ninety-nine names, i.e. one-hundred minus one, and whoever knows them will go to Paradise.”

[Sahih al-Bukhari 2736]

Abu Huraira reported Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) as saying:

“There are ninety-nine names of Allah; he who commits them to memory would get into Paradise. Verily, Allah is Odd (He is one, and it is an odd number) and He loves odd number. And in the narration of Ibn ‘Umar (the words are):” He who enumerated them.”

[Sahih Muslim 2677a]

We discussed the 99 names of Allah and their benefits which can also be called as Al-Asma-Ul-Husna or Al-Asma-Al-Husna.

The greatest name of all names is “Allah”.

All suspicions will vanish for the one who recites “Allah” at least 1000 times. Also, if someone wishes to be cured of a condition, he or she should recite the name “Allah” as many times as possible. Then pray for yourself to be free of disease.

I have made a table for all the rest 99 names of Allah known to Muslims with their meaning and benefits so it’s easy for anyone to memorize them or read them daily.

It is also important to note that these names are not superficial. Some of Allah’s names may appear to be synonymous, yet they are not. Each name reflects a distinct feature. They highlight a great attribute or ideal in Islam.

Reading Allah’s lovely names and learning what they mean can assist you and educate you. They would provide you with comfort and peace.

Reciting and understanding these characteristics can help you spiritually in a range of ways.

Reading Allah’s qualities on a regular basis may help a true Muslim find the right path not only in this world but also in the hereafter.
