    "He is Allah, the Creator, the Evolver, the Bestower of Forms (or Colours). To Him belong the Most Beautiful Names whatever is in the heavens and on earth, doth declare His Praises and Glory and He is the Exalted in Might, the Wise.

    "The most beautiful names belong to Allah so call on him by them;"

    Besides the Personal name of God, which is ?Allah?, there are collectively ninety-nine other names or attributes of His. It is not possible to perfectly translate the names and attributes of Allah from their original Arabic into English. However, here are some fairly close explanations.

    ' = letter hamza of Arabic

        This poster of this title, who blindly quotes the fabricated 99 names for Muhammad to rival God, is unfortunately so ignorant that he cannot even tell that many of attributes listed for Muhammad belongs to God. Besides, he cannot even think about the fact that some of the God's attributes in his list are not attributes of God. For instance, God is not DAARR (The harmer). Besides, about 15-20 attributes of God mentioned in the Quran is missing from his so-called 99 list.

          Assalaamualaikum Prince Zed

          You wrote

          "How can the 99 Names of Allah (swt) be left away from the 99 names of Allah's beloved, Muhammad (pbuh)?? Together, they make up the universe. "

          I don't know what you mean by this comment (only Allah knows), but it comes pretty close to shirk.

          Allah is in need of NO ONE...we are all slaves of Allah and so was Prophet Muhammad (may peace and blessings be on him and all the other prophets). Ur statement "Together they make up the universe" was disturbing to me.

          You are entitled to your beliefs.

          Allah Hafiz

          From the end point of view, man has ultimately to reside either in Hell-Prison OR Paradise. The basic qualification, precondition to become eligible for entry to Paradise is this which people conveniently forget while exposing their prejuidice about the Messenger s.a.s.

          Anyone who accepts either of the two and not both TWO, will beyond an iota of doubt land in Hell-Prison since he did not meet the First and Foremost requirement making him eligible for consideration to allow entry into Paradise.

            Edip, why do you think we cannot use God's attributes for His creation?

              I respect the Quran and I follow its guidance regarding God's attributes. There are few attributes of God used for humans, but I will not venture to include the ones that are not used for humans. Furthermore, the mere suggestion that "God has 99 attributes and Muhammad too has 99 attributes," contains a devious message of polytheism.

              Peace,

                IMO, If few are used for creation means other attributes can be used as well, unless we are told otherwise. Peace

                    Good. Mashallah. The same book tells us that Muhammad was following the Quran. And, furthermore, he will only complain about his people's desertion of the Quran.

                    I hope that you are not going to do your hocus pocus and transform the messenger of God who delivered the Quran alone and followed the Quran into a Bukhari, Tirmizi, Ibn Malik, or the imam of this sect or that sect!

                    So, follow the messenger and know that he did not deliver Bukhari and all other hearsay books, but the Quran.

                    Peace,

                      I only say that I physically follow in letter and spirit that which is communicated/ revealed to me".

                      And this Qur'aan has been communicated to me so that I admonish/awaken you the living people with this and to admonish/awaken the one whom this Qur'aan reached". ;

                      Anyone be it Nurani or Edip Yuksel whoever looks towards any person other than him is therefore doomed, whether it be Bukhari or Rashad Khalifa. And names of the Messengers of Allah given in Qur'aan are always to be mentioned with full respect; and a little disrespect shown for the Messenger of Allah who delivered Qur'aan may cause doom to a person, notwithstanding how much righteous he was apparently.

                        Al-^Adl - The Just, The One who is entitled to do what He does.
                        Al-Muqsit - The Equitable, The One who is Just in His judgment.
                        Aadil - The Justice

                        I can understand the 2nd and 3rd name but I don't understand how doing what ever one wants has any meaning in the context of being just. It's kind of the opposite of being just. Is there an example or explanation that makes sense of this?

                        Update This site explains the trait of Allah and I can see no suggestion in it that Just = entitled to do what he does

                          This poster of this title, who blindly quotes the fabricated 99 names for Muhammad to rival God, is unfortunately so ignorant that he cannot even tell that many of attributes listed for Muhammad belongs to God. Besides, he cannot even think about the fact that some of the God's attributes in his list are not attributes of God. For instance, God is not DAARR (The harmer).

                          Yeah, I noticed that too.
