Fatwa:

 All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad  is His slave and Messenger.

Different scholars  tried to determine the Names of Allah which are mentioned in the Quran and the Sunnah . For instance, Shaykh Ibn 'Uthaymeen  stated 99 names which he extracted from the Quran and the Sunnah , and they are as follows:

LoveAllah1Love is the greatest station the seeker on the path to Allah (subḥānahū wa taʿālā) can attain. The love of Allah is the purest and greatest of all loves. It gives life to the heart, it is sustenance for the soul, and is the roadway to eternal success.

Love is the road to Paradise. It is the main reason why we worship Allah, and it is the only way to live a true meaningful life on earth.

Without the love of Allah, life is bleak. This is because there is a void in every person’s heart which can only be filled with the love of Allah. Without love, a person’s life will be full of sadness, anxiety, pains and regrets. On the other hand, when the heart overflows with His love, a person will experience bliss and contentment.

How To Attain the Love of Allah

Everything that pleases Allah is a means of attaining His love. The following are some of the ways in which we can attain the love of Allah:

1) Reciting the Qur’ān with tadabbur (reflection).

2) Drawing close to Allah by doing nafl (voluntary) actions after the farḍ (obligatory) ones, as Allah says in a ḥadīth qudsī, “My servant continues to draw closer to me with voluntary acts until I love Him” (Bukhārī).

3) Constantly remembering Allah with the tongue, the heart, and your actions. How much you remember Allah will indicate how much you love Him.

4) Preferring Allah’s love over your own love when your desire overcomes you.

5) Reflecting on the Names and Attributes of Allah, and immersing oneself in attaining the maʿrifah (deep awareness) of Allah.

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful


Praise be to Allah, and may peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah, his family, his companions, and those who follow his guidance. Now then:
The hadith of Abu Hurayrah, may Allah be pleased with him, has become widespread among people, in which there is a list of the names of Allah. Allah was named with what He did not name Himself with, nor did His Messenger name Him with, based on what came in this hadith. When I learned about the scholars’ weakening of this hadith, I wanted to collect its chains of transmission and the words of the preservers of its chain of transmission and text. After Allah granted me success in completing this research, I decided to publish it on this network so that the status of this hadith would be known, especially among the Salafis, as they are the people of the creed and its protectors.

So I say, seeking help from Allah: On the authority of Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, who said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said: “Allah has ninety-nine names, whoever counts them will enter Paradise. He is Allah, there is no god but Him, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful, the King, the Holy, the Peaceful, the Faithful, the Guardian, the Preserver of the Guardians, the Almighty, the Compeller, the Majestic, the Forgiving, the Giver, the Provider, the Opener, the Knowing, the Restrictor, the Expander, the Abaser, the Exalter, the Honorer, the Humiliator, the All-Hearing, the All-Seeing, the Just, the Gentle, the All-Knowing, the Forbearing, the Forbearing, the Great, the Forgiving, the Grateful, the High, the Great, the Preserver, the Protector, the Reckoner, the Majestic, the Generous, the Watchful, the Responder, the Vast, the Wise, the Loving, the Majestic, the Glorious, the Resurrector, the Witness, the Truth, the Trustee, the Strong, the Firm, the Guardian, the Praiseworthy, the Enumerator, the Initiator, the Restorer, the Giver of Life, the Giver of Death, the Living, the Self-Sustaining, the Finder, the Majestic, the Eternal, the Able, the Powerful, the Friend, the Praiseworthy, the Enumerator, the Initiator, the Restorer, the Giver of Life, the Giver of Death, the Living, the Self-Sustaining, the Finder, the Majestic, the Eternal, the Able, the Powerful, the Advancer, the Deferrer, the First, the Last, the Manifest, the Hidden, the Guardian, the Most High, the Righteous, the Accepter of Repentance, the Avenger, the Pardoner, the Compassionate, the Patient
