Ninety-Nine Beautiful Names Of Allah And Their Meaning

Al-Baaqee (The Everlasting One)


Everything will perish except Allah Azza wa Jall. Allah said in Surah Al-Rahmaan (Ar-Rahmaan) verse 26 and 27 (Its English translation is):


(55:26) All²⁵ that is on earth will perish,


Exp. note 25:


25. From here to verse 30, the jinn and the men have been informed of two realities:

First, neither you are immortal nor the provisions that you are enjoying in this world everlasting. Immortal and everlasting is the Being of the High and Supreme God alone Whose greatness this universe testifies, and by Whose grace and kindness you have been favored with these bounties. Now, if someone among you behaves arrogantly, it would be due to his own meanness. If a foolish person assumes haughtiness in his tiny sphere of authority, or becomes god of a few helpless men who fall into his hand, this force would not last long. A godhead that lags for a mere score or two score years in a corner of the earth whose size in this limitless universe is not even equal to a pea seed, and then becomes a legend of the past, is not something of which one may feel proud and arrogant.

The other important truth of which both these creations have been warned is: None of those whom you have set up as deities and removers of hardships and fulfiller of needs, apart from Allah, whether they are angels or prophets or the moon and the sun, or some other creation, can fulfill any of your needs. These helpless creatures and things themselves stand in need of Allah’s help for their needs and requirements. They themselves pray to Him for help. When they are not able to remove their own hardships, how will they remove your hardships? Whatever is happening in this limitless universe, from the earth to the heavens, is happening under the command of One God alone. No one else has any share in His Godhead. No one therefore can influence anyone else’s destiny in any way.


(55:27) only the Person of your Lord, full of majesty and splendour, will endure.


(55:28) So which of the wonders of your Lord will you twain – you men and jinn – then deny?²⁶


Exp. note 26:


26. Here, as the context itself shows, the word alaa has been used in the sense of excellences and perfections. Whoever of the mortal creatures is involved in vanity and self-arrogance and struts about thinking that his false godhead is everlasting, disavows Lord of the world’s glory and majesty by his conduct, if not by his tongue. His pride and arrogance by itself is a denial of Allah Almighty’s greatness and glory. Whatever claim he may make to an excellence by his tongue, or arrogate to himself such an excellence, it is indeed a disavowal of the rank and station of the real possessor of excellences and perfections.
************************************************** ************


Allah said in surah Al-Furqaan verse 58 (the English translation is):


(25:58) (O Muhammad), put your trust in Him Who is Ever-
Living, Who will never die, and glorify Him with His praise. He suffices as the Knower of the sins of His servants,



Allah is the Owner of everything and that of the whole Universe. Allah Ta’aala is the Giver of death and life to everyone. Allah HIMSELF shall live forever. This whole universe is going to end at the ordained time by the Command of Allah All-Mighty. All of the mankind and jinn also will come to an end. But Allah will give us another life in the next world where Judgment shall be passed and then the human beings and the jinns shall remain forever, some in Hell and some in Paradise according to their faith and deeds.


Whatever we do here for this world, will perish and whatever good we do for the Hereafter shall remain with Allah to benefit us forever.


Allah Azza wa Jall said in the surah Al-Nahl (An-Nahl) verse 96 (its English translation is):


(16:96) Whatever you have is bound to pass away and whatever is with Allah will last. And We shall surely grant those who have been patient their reward⁹⁸ according to the best of what they did.



Exp. notes:


1. The wealth and property of this world will perish and the Hereafter is everlasting. Therefore, your goal must be the Hereafter and you must desire and pray for its blessings.


2. Those who will remain steadfast in the severe trials in this world will get their ranks and rewards in the Hereafter according to their excellent deeds.
*************************************************


Thus Allah Azza wa Jall is Al-Baaqee i.e. Allah Azza wa Jall will live forever.

Al-Mun-im:

Only Allah Azza wa Jall is the Giver of blessings. Allah Almighty said in the surah Al-Nahl (An-Nahl) verses 53 and 18

(English translation):
53. And whatever of blessings and good things you have, it is from Allah. Then, when harm touches you, unto Him you cry aloud for help.


18. And if you would count the graces of Allah, never could you be able to count them. Truly! Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.


We must always pray to Allah to protect us from the cessation of the blessings ( Zawaali-ni’mah). We cannot count the blessings of Allah so we must be very thankful to Allah for HIS Blessings.


According to a Hadeeth Shareef, narrated by Jaabir Bin Abdullah (radi-yallaho anhu) the Prophet (Allah's Peace and Blessings be upon him) visited him and he (Jaabir rAa) presented to Him fresh dates and cool water. The Prophet (Allah's Peace and Blessings be upon him) said “These are from those blessings about which you will be questioned”.

(Musnad Ahmad, Nisaa-ee, Ibn- Jareer and many others)


So it is clear from many ahaadeeth that it is not only the unbelievers who shall be questioned about the blessings but also Muslims. The difference is that if a Muslim had realized in this world that the blessings with him were from Allah azza wa Jall and if he tried to pay thanks to Allah with his heart, tongue and actions then he will succeed in the accounting otherwise he/she will fail!!!


Paying thanks by actions means that we must give a poor, needy and a way farer his right. The numerous blessings that every person is enjoying are of different types. Some are given to mankind directly like eyes to see with, ears to hear with, tongue to speak with, hands to work with and feet/legs to walk with. We must consider these blessings of Allah as Allah ‘s trust and we must use them according to Allah’s Will and Commands. For e.g. we shouldn’t use our eyes to look at immoral scenes, we shouldn’t listen to music, back biting etc. We should use our tongue only for saying proper words and for the praises and remembrance of Allah. We should use our legs and feet to go for doing lawful things and also for going to Masjid but not for going to a cinema. We must do good things with our hands like lawful work to earn our sustenance. But we shouldn’t use our hands for unjust actions.


Another type of blessings are given to us by our struggle. These blessings must be earned in the lawful way and also must be used and spent in the lawful way.


Al-Muntaqim:


The One Who takes revenge. Allah is the Avenger, the Lord of Retribution!!! Allah said in surah Aali-Imraan verses 3 and 4

(its English translation is):

3. He has sent down upon you, [O Muhammad], the Book in truth, confirming what was before it. And He revealed the Torah and the Gospel.


4. Then those who reject Faith in the Signs of Allah will suffer the severest penalty, and Allah is Exalted in Might, Lord of Retribution.



And Allah said in surah Al-Dukhaan (Ad-Dukhaan) verse 16 (Its English translation is):

16. The Day We will strike with the greatest assault, indeed, We will take retribution.


Although Allah Azza wa Jall is the Forgiving and Forbearing but the transgressive arrogant shouldn’t think that they can take advantage of these Attributes of Allah. They must also remember that Allah is the Lord of Retribution too. Usually, the oppressed Muslims become hasty and start wishing that Allah’s Punishment should catch the oppressors. But the Muslims note that they have to be extremely patient because it is up to Allah whether Allah Almighty punishes in this world or not and if yes then when will Allah catch the oppressors? All this authority lies with Allah and while wishing the punishment for others, we must pray for our own safety as Allah said in the surah al-Ma’idah verse 95:


(5:95) Believers! Do not kill game while you are in the state of pilgrim sanctity.¹¹⁰ Whoever of you kills it willfully there shall be a recompense, the like of what he has killed in cattle - as shall be judged by two men of equity among you - to be brought to the Ka'bah as an offering, or as an expiation the feeding of the needy, or its equivalent in fasting¹¹¹ in order that he may taste the grievousness of his deed. Allah has pardoned whatever has passed; but Allah will exact a penalty from him who repeats it. Allah is All-Mighty. He is fully capable of exacting penalties.


Exp. Note 110:


110. When a person is in the state of pilgrim sanctity (ihram) it is prohibited for him both to hunt and to assist in hunting animals. Indeed, even if an animal has been hunted for him by someone else he may not eat it. However, if someone hunts an animal for himself and makes a gift of it to such a person, there is no harm in his eating it. There is an exception to this injunction and that is with regard to harmful animals. Snakes, scorpions, mad dogs and other such animals which cause injury to man may be killed even by one in the state of ihram. (See Bukhari, 'Talaq', 24; 'Sayd', 2; Abu Da'ud, 'Manasik', 40, 41; Tirmidhi, 'Hajj', 27; 'Sayd', 26 - Ed.)

************************************************** ************************************************** **********


So we must pray for ourselves and for others, for an oppressor we must pray to Allah to guide him on the right path. But we shouldn’t become hopeless of Allah’s Justice. The real place for Allah’s Justice is the Here-After. There Allah shall judge every oppressor and punish him while Allah shall reward the oppressed one as Allah said in the surah Ibraheem verse 42 :


42. And never think that Allah is unaware of what the wrongdoers do. He only delays them for a Day when eyes will stare [in horror].

************************************************** **************************************


The translation of the above verse ( i.e surah Ibraheem verse 42) is very clear. Allah Azza wa Jall gives them more and more time to think, reflect and repent from his unjust actions. In case he/she is heedless then they shall suffer much more severe punishment. May Allah protect us. May Allah make us just and kind to people and make us from those who do tawbah (repent) to Allah again and again, aameen. May Allah make us the dwellers of Paradise, aameen. Truly, that shall be a great success.

Know that there is a difference of opinion as to if al-Muntaqim is the Name of Allaah or not.

The scholars have differed over which Names are really His Names and which are not.

You seem to be using the ones found at the back of published Qur'aan copies.

Those are derived from a Hadiith in Jaami al-Tirmidhi which has been declared weak.

Please be careful as Naming Allaah with a Name which does not belong to Him is a sin.

قال شيخ الإسلام في مجموع الفتاوى: واسم المنتقم ليس من أسماء الله الحسنى الثابتة عن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم، وإنما جاء في القرآن مقيدا كقوله تعالى: إِنَّا مِنَ الْمُجْرِمِينَ مُنتَقِمُونَ [سورة السجدة:22]، وقوله:
إِنَّ اللّهَ عَزِيزٌ ذُو انْتِقَامٍ [ سورة إبراهيم: 47].



Shiekh Al-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah said that the Name al-Muntaqim is not from the Nmaes of Allaah which has been established from the Prophet (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam).

I have many lists of the beautiful names of Allah and Al-Muntaqim is present in them. Also the verses of the Holy Quraan (given above in your post ) are the greatest evidence of this beautiful name of Allah!!! such verses are also found in other surahs like surah Aali-Imraan.


In fact Allah will surely take revenge from the criminals and Allah's revenge is the most severe thing so we are ordered to fear and protect ourselves. It is and shall be terrible and lasting. Thus Allah said:


يا عباد فاتقون


"O (MY) servants, fear (ME and take heed)."

************************************************** ************************************************** *********

It is our important duty to inform mankind about this Attribute of Allah as Allah has prepared Hell for the criminals and Hell is a very bad place to return to!!! If you don't inform them then the sinners will complain to Allah on the Day of Judgment that you didn't inform them about all of these things!!!

No, my dear brother. The copies of the Qur'aan weren't printed like this back in the days of the Companions. Today you have companies printing the Qur'aan, and putting a list of the Names of Allaah on the front. Then they place the names of the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) on the back.


Let me repeat. The list you are talking about was taken from a hadiith in Jaami al-Tirmidhi and it is weak. A weak Hadiith is not used in matters of legislation. It is definitely not used for the Names of Allaah.


Names of Allaah have to be justified by the Qur'aan and Sunnah.


If you read the Fatwaa, which you did not, you would realize that the Name as you are trying to prove to be in the Qur'aan is not there as you believe it to be.


It is there in the restricted form. The first Verse has it as He takes revenge from those who are criminals. In the second word it is in the form of an annexation.

وأما المنتقم فليس من أسماء الله، لأن الله تعالى لم يذكر هذا الوصف لنفسه إلا مقيداً، وكل وصف جاء مقيداً فهو ليس من أسماء الله، لأن أسماء الله كمال على الإطلاق لا تحتاج إلى تقييد، والله سبحانه وتعالى إنما ذكر المنتقم في مقابلة الإجرام فقال: {إنا من المجرمين منتقمون}، وحينئذ لا يكون المنتقم من أسماء الله.


[Paraphrase] al-MuntaQim is not a Name of Allaah because Allaah has not mentioned this Attribute except with it is restricted. Every Attribute which has come in the restricted form is not a Name of Allaah because Allaah's Names are complete without any restriction and have no need to be restricted. Allaah has only mentioned al-MuntaQim in opposition to wrongdoing and hence it is not from the Names of Allaah.

Also know that there is a difference between the Names of Allaah and His Attributes.


Please understand that all the lists you are referring to are based on the weak hadiith in Jaami al-Tirmidhi which contain a list of Ninety Nine Names of Allaah. A weak hadiith cannot be used to derive something as important as the Names of Allaah.


Also read this English Fatwaa for better understanding. Concentrate on the following:


Secondly: An action is broader in meaning than a name. Hence Allaah has attributed to Himself actions for which He is not called by the active participle of the verb in question, such as wanting (araada), willing (shaa’a) and causing to happen (ahdatha); He is not called al-mureed (the wanter or seeker) or al-shaa’i (the willer) or al-muhdith (the causer). Similarly He did not call Himself al-saani’ (the maker), al-faa’il (the doer), or al-mutqin (the one who does things perfectly), or other names derived from actions that He attributes to Himself. The scope of actions is broader than the scope of words.


Those who derive a name for Allaah from every action made a serious mistake and made the number of His names reach more than one thousand. They called Him al-maakir (the plotter), al-mukhaadi’ (the deceiver), al-faatin (the causer of tribulation), al-kaa’id (the schemer), etc.





Reference(s):

Are these from among the Names of Allaah

Ref: O Allah, I am Your servant, son of Your servant, son of your maidservant. My forehead is in Your hand. Your command conceming me prevails, and Your decision concerning me is just. I call upon You by every one of the beautiful names by which You have described Yourself, or which You have revealed in Your book, or have taught anyone of Your creatures, or which You have chosen to keep in the knowledge of the unseen with You, to make the Qur`an the delight of my heart, the light of my breast, and remover of my griefs, sorrows, and afflictions`."


Allah humma inni abduk, wabnu abdik, wabnu amatik; nasiyati bi yadik, maadin fiya hukmuk, wa adlun fiya qada-uk; as aluka bi kulle ismin sammayta bihi nafsak, au anzaltahu bi kitabik, au allam tahu ahadan min khalkik, au ista tharta bihi fi ilmil gaybi indak, antaj alal Quranaa rabiya qalbi, wa nura sadary, wa jilaa huzni, wa zihaba hammi.


The above is saheeh hadeeth, I know it since long from different sources. The above copy, I took from Islamic board .
1. This Hadeeth proves that Allah’s names are many more, which:

a). Allah Ta’aala sent down in HIS Book,
b). Allah taught HIS Servants like the Prophets alaihim salaam,
c). Allah Azza wa Jall kept with HIMSELF in the unseen knowledge.

So only 99 names is not the limit.

2. Dhoo-Al-Jalaali wa Al-Ikraam is a name of Allah that came in the Holy Quraan. Dhoo- Intiqaam came in the Holy Quraan in more than one place Dhoo means “sahib” i.e. Owner. Again this name (quality) came with another name that is Azeez. So you cannot deny the name Al-Muntaqim for Allah. I also give another example:

Allah revealed the names Azeezim-Muqtadir in surah Al-Qamar verse 42 and Maleekim-Muqtadir in verse 55. The name Al-Muqtadir is present in the names of Allah and is proven from the Holy Quraan. Similarly, the Name Muntaqimoon (plural of Muntaqim) and Azeezun-Dhoo-Intiqaam are present in the Holy Quraan and they prove the name Al-Muntaqim present in the names of Allah..


3. You say that this name came with taqyeed. Allah is Al-Raheem (Ar-Raheem ) only for the Muslims on the Day of Judgment. So taqyeed is there. Then will you say that Al-Rheem (Ar-Raheem) is not the name of Allah?


4. The fatwa given is not proved to be correct and correctly coming from a great God-Fearing scholar. Now there are so many mischief-maker munaafiqeen who are trying to remove true ahaadeeth and add false, invented ones to the collections of all books of hadeeth even to Bukhaari and Muslim. The only source to prove the truth of a fatwa is that it must be according to the Holy Quraan and Sunnah. The name Al-Muntaqim is present both in Quraan and Hadeeth. See the following verse:

فَلَا تَحۡسَبَنَّ اللّٰهَ مُخۡلِفَ وَعۡدِه رُسُلَه. اِنَّ اللّٰهَ عَزِيۡزٌ ذُوۡ انْتِقَامٍؕ‏

(14:47) So, do not think, (O Prophet), that Allah will go back upon His promise to His Messengers.⁵⁶ Surely Allah is Mighty, Lord of retribution.


Here Allah declared that Allah is the Lord of retribution. Then the Hdeeth gave the name Al-Muntaqim which is in accordance with the Quraan.

You must bring a statement from the Holy Quraan which proves that Allah will not punish the criminal / killers / kaafirs / idolaters and that Allah will not take revenge of the innocent people.

If you cannot bring the proof and surely you cannot bring it, then please don’t waste my time. This is a thread to explain the beautiful names of Allah only. It is not a thread for discussion purpose.

May Allah guide you. You are accusing someone of not being fearful of Allaah?
You are labeling someone of being a mischief maker without any evidence???????????????

I seek refuge from Allaah from such ignorance.

And you think Allaah will take revenge from innocent people while Allaah clearly says in the Qur'aan that He will not wrong His slaves???????

Astaghfirullah.....

May Allah guide you and rid you of your arrogance and ignorance.

So, you claim that the hadiith in Jaami al-Tirmidhi is authentic? What is your proof?

The Hadiith you claim is authentic without evidence has been outlined by scholars to have at least three defects in it.


First it has الاضطراب

Second there is تدليس of الوليد بن مسلم

Third there is the possibility of الإدراج


Scholars like the Maaliki giant Ibn al-'Arabi and the Shaafi'i Ibn Kathiir have labelled it weak. So has الصنعاني

Are you going to accuse them of not being God fearing as well?

3. You say that this name came with taqyeed. Allah is Al-Raheem (Ar-Raheem ) only for the Muslims on the Day of Judgment. So taqyeed is there. Then will you say that Al-Rheem (Ar-Raheem) is not the name of Allah?

If you cannot bring the proof and surely you cannot bring it, then please don’t waste my time. This is a thread to explain the beautiful names of Allah only. It is not a thread for discussion purpose.

In addition to what I have posted in my previous two posts, let me repeat that you do not understand what I wrote because you have compared the name al-Rahiim to al-MuntaQim by saying that too is restricted.

The name al-Rahiim has come unrestricted in the Qur'aan and it has come with an Alif Laam prefixed to it. Unrestricted refers to its usage in the Qur'aan without annexation ['iDaafa]. We are not referring to the meaning of the Name as you have misunderstood.

A Name of Allaah has to be unrestricted when used in the Qur'aan and Sunnah to be accepted as a Name. This does not have to do with the meaning of the Name. It has to do with its usage.

Please try to understand the difference.

al-Rahiim has come unrestricted in the Qur'aan

Look at the following Qur'aanic Verse


تَنزِيلٌ مِنْ الرَّحْمَانِ الرَّحِيمِ



Show me where in the Qur'aan al-MuntaQim has come like that as follows

المنتقم

You cannot because it hasn't. And you continue to rely on a hadiith graded weak by great scholars such as Ibn al-'Arabi the Maaliki and Ibn kathiir the Shaafi'i.

May Allaah open up your heart to understanding.

To avoid confusion let me make clear that yes scholars have labelled that Hadiith correct. Some have labelled it weak.

However, the hadiith we are discussing is the one from which you have taken the Ninety Nine Names. Let me put down that Hadiith for you.


إِنَّ لِلَّهِ تَعَالَى تِسْعَةً وَتِسْعِينَ اسْمًا مِائَةً غَيْرَ وَاحِدَةٍ مَنْ أَحْصَاهَا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ هُوَ اللَّهُ الَّذِي لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ هُوَ الرَّحْمَنُ الرَّحِيمُ الْمَلِكُ الْقُدُّوسُ السَّلاَمُ الْمُؤْمِنُ الْمُهَيْمِنُ الْعَزِيزُ الْجَبَّارُ الْمُتَكَبِّرُ الْخَالِقُ الْبَارِئُ الْمُصَوِّرُ الْغَفَّارُ الْقَهَّارُ الْوَهَّابُ الرَّزَّاقُ الْفَتَّاحُ الْعَلِيمُ الْقَابِضُ الْبَاسِطُ الْخَافِضُ الرَّافِعُ الْمُعِزُّ الْمُذِلُّ السَّمِيعُ الْبَصِيرُ الْحَكَمُ الْعَدْلُ اللَّطِيفُ الْخَبِيرُ الْحَلِيمُ الْعَظِيمُ الْغَفُورُ الشَّكُورُ الْعَلِيُّ الْكَبِيرُ الْحَفِيظُ الْمُقِيتُ الْحَسِيبُ الْجَلِيلُ الْكَرِيمُ الرَّقِيبُ الْمُجِيبُ الْوَاسِعُ الْحَكِيمُ الْوَدُودُ الْمَجِيدُ الْبَاعِثُ الشَّهِيدُ الْحَقُّ الْوَكِيلُ الْقَوِيُّ الْمَتِينُ الْوَلِيُّ الْحَمِيدُ الْمُحْصِي الْمُبْدِئُ الْمُعِيدُ الْمُحْيِي الْمُمِيتُ الْحَىُّ الْقَيُّومُ الْوَاجِدُ الْمَاجِدُ الْوَاحِدُ الصَّمَدُ الْقَادِرُ الْمُقْتَدِرُ الْمُقَدِّمُ الْمُؤَخِّرُ الأَوَّلُ الآخِرُ الظَّاهِرُ الْبَاطِنُ الْوَالِي الْمُتَعَالِي الْبَرُّ التَّوَّابُ الْمُنْتَقِمُ الْعَفُوُّ الرَّءُوفُ مَالِكُ الْمُلْكِ ذُو الْجَلاَلِ وَالإِكْرَامِ الْمُقْسِطُ الْجَامِعُ الْغَنِيُّ الْمُغْنِي الْمَانِعُ الضَّارُّ النَّافِعُ النُّورُ الْهَادِي الْبَدِيعُ الْبَاقِي الْوَارِثُ الرَّشِيدُ الصَّبُورُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ غَرِيبٌ حَدَّثَنَا بِهِ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ عَنْ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ‏.‏ وَلاَ نَعْرِفُهُ إِلاَّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ صَفْوَانَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ وَهُوَ ثِقَةٌ عِنْدَ أَهْلِ الْحَدِيثِ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رُوِيَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ مِنْ غَيْرِ وَجْهٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَلاَ نَعْلَمُ - فِي كَبِيرِ شَيْءٍ مِنَ الرِّوَايَاتِ لَهُ إِسْنَادٌ صَحِيحٌ ذِكْرَ الأَسْمَاءِ إِلاَّ فِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ ‏.‏ وَقَدْ رَوَى آدَمُ بْنُ أَبِي إِيَاسٍ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ بِإِسْنَادٍ غَيْرِ هَذَا عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَذَكَرَ فِيهِ الأَسْمَاءَ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ إِسْنَادٌ صَحِيحٌ ‏.‏



Now let us look at this Hadiith closely. We can divide it into two parts.

The frist part is the one which reads:

إِنَّ لِلَّهِ تَعَالَى تِسْعَةً وَتِسْعِينَ اسْمًا مِائَةً غَيْرَ وَاحِدَةٍ مَنْ أَحْصَاهَا دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ

This is authentic. This part has been narrated in the Hadiith present in Sahih al-Bukhaari which is Hadith No. 7932

You can read it here online.

This part is present in Sahih al-Bukhaari and says


Narrated Abu Huraira:



Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "Allah has ninety-nine Names, one-hundred less one; and he who memorized them all by heart will enter Paradise." To count something means to know it by heart.




No one denies the authenticity of this portion of the Hadiith. However, note that al-Bukhaari's version does not have the Names listed as does al-Tirmidhi's version.

As a matter of fact this same Hadiith is also narrated by Muslim in his Sahih. You can read it here.

Note that even the version of Sahih Muslim does not have the enumeration of the Names.

It is only the version present in Jaami' al-Tirmidhi which has the enumeration of the Names.


This is why some scholars, like Ibn Kathiir, said that there was possibly الإدراج in the Version of al-Tirmidhi.


What is الإدراج in a hadiith?

الإدراج is of two types. It can be in the chain of narrators or in the matn of the Hadiith.

For our purposes we will stick to what is relevant, namely الإدراج in the matn.


So what is it?

ما أُدْخِلَ في متنه ما ليس منه بلا فَصْل

It refers to that which has been entered into the text of a hadiith and is not actually a part of it and has been done without any separation [thus giving the false impression that it is part of the text of the hadiith].


Now, this can take place at the beginning of the Hadiith, middle, or end with the last being the most prominent and the first two being much less.

One of the problems with the Hadiith of al-Tirmidhi is that the enumeration of the Names might possibly have been put into it and not from the words of the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam).

This is what the Shaafi'i giant Muhaddith and Mufassir Ibn Kathiir said.

Keep in mind that Ibn Kathiir was both a Muhaddith and a Mufassir. He had command over both Hadiith and over Tafsir of the Qur'aan.


This is just one of the problems with this Hadiith which I have explained in detail. There are others.

That is why the likes of the Shaafi'i giant Ibn kathiir, the Maaliki giant Ibn al-'arabi, and Sheikh al-albaani have all graded the hadiith weak.

My job was to convey the message.

It is up to you what you decide to do now.

But please do not accuse scholars of not being God fearing. That is wrong.

The name al-Rahiim has come unrestricted in the Qur'aan and it has come with an Alif Laam prefixed to it. Unrestricted refers to its usage in the Qur'aan without annexation ['iDaafa]. We are not referring to the meaning of the Name as you have misunderstood.

A Name of Allaah has to be unrestricted when used in the Qur'aan and Sunnah to be accepted as a Name. This does not have to do with the meaning of the Name. It has to do with its usage.

Please try to understand the difference.

al-Rahiim has come unrestricted in the Qur'aan

Look at the following Qur'aanic Verse


تَنزِيلٌ مِنْ الرَّحْمَانِ الرَّحِيمِ



Show me where in the Qur'aan al-MuntaQim has come like that as follows

المنتقم

You cannot because it hasn't. And you continue to rely on a hadiith graded weak by great scholars such as Ibn al-'Arabi the Maaliki and Ibn kathiir the Shaafi'i.

May Allaah open up your heart to understanding.

"Al" is called al-atta'reef. It changes a common noun into a proper noun. There is no taqyeed without "al". I explained in the last post that the name Muqtadir is found in the Holy Quraan without "Al". But in Hadeeth it came as Al-Muqtadir. There are other names which came in the Hadeeth only, as Al-Rasheed (Ar-Rasheed) and many others.


Then will you remove all of those names which didn't come in the Quraan or came without Al-att'areef?????

Third there is the possibility of الإدراج


Scholars like the Maaliki giant Ibn al-'Arabi and the Shaafi'i Ibn Kathiir have labelled it weak. So has الصنعاني

Are you going to accuse them of not being God fearing as well?

Unfortunately, you don,t understand English very well!!! I wrote that it is not proven that the statement came from a God-fearing scholar. This means that the statement may have been invented newly by an enemy of Islam and then attached to a God-Fearing scholar. Now they make so many false ahaadeeth and attach them to Aa'ishah rAa and Ibni Abbas rAa. So the present munaafiqeen do not fear Allah.

@zeeshan parvez : where are you...?

This is what the Shaafi'i giant Muhaddith and Mufassir Ibn Kathiir said.

Why didn't people consider those statements before? How come this information came out now???
For centuries Muslims were using these 99 names of Allah Ta'aala without questioning them.

It is obvious that these statements are fabricated now and are falsely attributed to the great Islamic scholars!!!!!!

Keep in mind that Ibn Kathiir was both a Muhaddith and a Mufassir. He had command over both Hadiith and over Tafsir of the Qur'aan.

It is up to you what you decide to do now.

But please do not accuse scholars of not being God fearing. That is wrong.

I told you in the previous post that I called the scholars God-Fearing. I am accusing the munaafiqeen to be having no fear of Allah. Therefore they invent false statements and then attach them (Attribute them) to the God-fearing scholars.


Now think about your post (quoted above):


You say that the first part of the hadeeth which says that there are 99 names of Allah, whoever remembers (and recites them daily) will enter Jannah, is authentic. While the second part which has the beautiful names of Allah is not authentic because it is not present in Saheeh Al-Bukhaaree and Muslim.


Now I call all Muslims to consider your words with justice and give their sincere opinion:


Muslim brothers and sisters, the knowledge of Islam not only came in the Quraan and Hadeeth, but it is also a Deen of wisdom. Now think;


Did Allah and Allah’s Prophet salla Allaho alaihi wa sallam tell us about 99 names of Allah and that reciting and memorizing those names will help us enter Paradise, but then they didn’t give us the list of those names??? Is it expected from Allah and HIS Final Prophet salla Allaho alaihi wa sallam to leave us with such incomplete Deen??? Then why didn’t the companions ask Him salla Allaho alaihi wa sallam about the list of the names???


No! Never! This is a false accusation on Allah and on Muhammad salla Allaho alaihi wa sallam. The wisdom says that He salla Allaho alaihi wa sallam must have given the list of the names of Allah and it is that list which as a muta-waatar hadeeth reached us. Muta-waatar hadeeth is the one which has been transmitted by such a great number of people in each generation that there is no doubt in its authenticity!!!


Again is it Bukhaaree and Muslim who left this hadeeth of the names of Allah incomplete or is it false accusation on them?? The wisdom says that this must be false accusation on them.


Then what happened to the last part of the hadeeth? Why the names disappeared in Bukhaaree and Muslim??


The wisdom says that Bukhaaree and Muslim both must have reported perfect hadeeth of the names of Allah but later they were removed!!!


For your information, Saheeh Sittah are the six (6) books of Hadeeth which were considered true and the most reliable in the Uloomul-Hadeeth. These six books are from Bukhaaree, Muslim, Tirmidhee, An-Nasaa’ee, Ibn Maajah and Abu-Dawood.


Now we came to know from the above quoted post that:


Saheeh Muslim and Saheeh Al-Bukhaaree are attacked by the mischief-makers up to the extent that Allah’s names are removed from them.


That Al-Tirmidhee is attacked and attempt is made to remove the names of Allah from that book too.

That Mr.Zeeshan Parvez is not only removing the name Al-Muntaqim but also he is trying to prove from the attacked books of Bukhaaree and Muslim that there is no list of the names of Allah Azza wa Jall!!! So he is trying to remove all of the names of Allah!!!


Bottom line is that you cannot use da’eef (weak) or any kind of hadeeth to change muta-waatar hadeeth because muta-waatar hadeeth is the most authentic and trustable form of hadeeth.

The names of Allah reached us as a muta-waatar Hadeeth. So stop attacking them!!!

Nice try.

Let me repeat. Ibn Kathiir, the Shaafi'i giant, Ibn al-'Arabi the Maaliki giant, and the scholar of Hadiith of our time Sheikh al-Albaani graded the hadiith weak.

There is no accusations here. Only lack of knowledge. Please educate yourself about the science of Hadiith.

No one is attacking the Names of Allaah. The Names of Allaah are present in the Noble Qur'aan.

al-muntaQim is not one of them.

Please find the word المنتقم in the Qur'aan. If you cannot, please stop attributing things to Allaah and His Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam).

In the meanwhile, stop accusing others of attacking the Names of Allaah.

One more thing. Imaam al-Tirmidhi, himself, considered the hadiith weak. He included both weak and authentic hadiith in his book. He considered this hadiith weak.

Translators do not translate his comments on the hadiith. You should accuse them of hiding information.

Yes, you are now understanding things. al-Rashiid is not a Name of Allaah.

Can you show us the name al-Rashiid in the Hadiith?

Did you know that the weak hadiith you are using for the Names of Allaah does not contain al-Rabb?

Are you going to say al-Rabb is not a Name of Allaah and the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) did not tell his Companions this Name?

Did you know that the weak list you are using does not contain the Name al-Shaafi? Are you going to tell us that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) did not tell his Companions this Name? He used it in the following authentic hadiith.


قَالَتْ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذَا أَتَى الْمَرِيضَ يَدْعُو لَهُ قَالَ ‏"‏ أَذْهِبِ الْبَاسَ رَبَّ النَّاسِ وَاشْفِ أَنْتَ الشَّافِي لاَ شِفَاءَ إِلاَّ شِفَاؤُكَ شِفَاءً لاَ يُغَادِرُ سَقَمًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَفِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَدَعَا لَهُ وَقَالَ ‏"‏ وَأَنْتَ الشَّافِي ‏"‏ ‏.‏


That hadiith is from Sahih Muslim. Read the English below

'A'isha reported that when Allah's Messenger (sallallaahu alayhi wa sallam) came to visit any sick he supplicated for him and said:


Lord of the people, remove the malady, cure him for Thou art al-Shaafi. There is no cure but through Thine healing Power which leaves no trouble, and in the narration transmitted on the authority of Abu Bakr there is a slight variation of wording.





The fact is that scholars declared weak the hadiith with the enumeration of the Names. The list is weak. We do not use weak lists for the Names of Allah.

هل صح أن (الرشيد) من أسماء الله عز وجل؟ وما حكم التسمية بـ: عبد الرشيد ؟ وهل يلزم من سمي بـ: عبد الرشيد تغيير الاسم؟

Is it correct that al-Rashiid is from among the Names of Allaah? And what is the ruling of naming a person Abul rashiid? Is it necessary that if one is named Abdul rashiid to change the name?



ليس من أسماء الله تعالى؛ لعدم وروده في القرآن وعدم ثبوته في السنة، وبناء على ما تقدم فلا يجوز أن يقال (عبد الرشيد)
، ومن تسمى بذلك فالواجب عليه تغييره


It is not from among the Names of Allaah because it is not found in the Qur'aan and there is no proof of it in the Sunnah. Based on that which has preceded, it is not permissible to say Abdul rashiid.

And whoever has been named with that, then it is waajib upon him to change it.
