99 Names of Allah الأسماء الحسنى

Arabic, transliteration and sourced English renderings

“And to Allāh belong the best names, so invoke Him by them.” Quran 7:180, Saheeh International.

What is this list?

This page presents the traditional enumeration in Jami` at-Tirmidhi 3507. The hadith that Allah has ninety-nine names is authentic (Sahih al-Bukhari 7392 and Sahih Muslim 2677), but those narrations do not enumerate the names.

The Tirmidhi enumeration is graded da'if (weak). This page does not claim that Allah's names are limited to only ninety-nine. Each English rendering identifies its source; where no reliable sourced rendering was available, none is supplied.
