There are many names of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ and they all have lovely meanings.

Jubair b. Mut’im reported on the authority of his father that he heard Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) saying:

I have many names: I am Muhammad, I am Ahmad, I am al-Mahi through whom Allah obliterates unbelief, and I am Hashir (the gatherer) at whose feet people will be gathered, and I am ‘Aqib (after whom there would be none), and Allah has named him as compassionate and merciful.

[Sahih Muslim 2354b]

Being Muslims, we understand His impact on our lives, but even non-Muslims recognize His significance and tend to follow in His footsteps because they are not only for Muslims but for the entire world.

The Holy Prophet (peace be upon him) is Allah Tala’s last messenger, and He was sent to enlighten humanity.

The Arabs believe that the more names a thing has, the nobler it is. A lot of experts have developed collections of Prophet Muhammad’s names in order to deepen understanding of who he is.

His name alludes not only to his high praise but also to the fact that his qualities and virtues are limitless and cannot be contained. The more we learn, the more Allah reveals to us, allowing us to praise him until the end of time and beyond.

There is also a strong emphasis on sending prayers upon the Prophet ﷺ after his name is mentioned, orally or written. Hazrat Ali said:

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘The miser is the one who, when I am mentioned in his presence, does not send prayers upon me.’”

The most common prayer after the mention of the name of Muhammad ﷺ is (sallAllahu alaihi wasallam), meaning “Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him”.
