What is the hundredth name of Allah, by which if He is implored, He grants, and what are the verses or hadiths that referred to it, and is it known?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The most preponderant opinion is that Allah's Greatest Name (Ism al-A'dham) is "Allah," due to its affirmation in most of the reported hadiths. Many scholars have explicitly stated this, and it is included among the Beautiful Names (al-Asma al-Husna) but is unspecifiable within them. Allah's names are not limited to a specific number, nor are they only one hundred; rather, they are numerous, some of which Allah has kept exclusively in His unseen knowledge.
