What are the 99 Names of Allah (SWT)?
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: "Allah has ninety-nine names, one hundred minus one. Whoever counts them will enter Paradise" (Sahih al-Bukhari 6410, Sahih Muslim 2677).
"Counts them" (in Arabic, ahsaha) means more than memorising. It is to know each name, to call upon Allah (SWT) by it, and to live by the qualities each name describes. To ask Al-Razzaq (the Provider) for sustenance is one counting. To forgive a brother because Allah (SWT) is Al-Ghafur (the Most Forgiving) is another.
The list of 99 below is the one most commonly transmitted (from the narration of Tirmidhi 3507). Scholars note its chain is weak in places, and other authentic sources mention names not on this list (Al-Mannan, As-Sayyid). What matters is that every name of Allah (SWT) praises Him by an attribute He has Himself revealed in the Quran or through His Messenger ﷺ. The 99 here are a window, not a wall.
