Whoever learns them will enter Paradise. Traditionally it is said in Islam that God has ninety-nine Names. These Names may vary slightly in different established lists, and some lists contain more than ninety-nine, but each of them is derived from the many terms used to describe Him in the Quran and Hadith. Therefore, when invoking these Names we are inviting into our being the very Names and attributes which He has enumerated for Himself. The Names in this recording are from the most standard list, narrated on the authority of Abu Hurairah, and is one on which many Quranic commentators, including al-Ghazali, base their commentaries.
It should be noted that even though the list of ninety-nine Names used here is one that commentators often rely on, it is not definitive. In a sense, the Names can be viewed as aspects of the Face that God shows to us, and these encompass all of creation. Just as light from one source passing through a prism reveals numerous colors contained with the light, the fact that God has many Names does not compromise His Oneness; rather, they reveal qualities contained within His One Essence.
By contemplating these meanings our minds, which are limited, can perceive something of that Infinite Nature. Add artwork. Do you know any background info about this album? Start the wiki. Don't want to see ads? Upgrade Now. Javascript is required to view shouts on this page.
