Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on naming oneself “by the status of the Messenger” or “by the honor of the Messenger”?
Answer:
It is not permissible to say this. According to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), "al-Hasib" (the Reckoner) is a name specific to Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. We say, "Allah is sufficient for us, and He is the best Disposer of affairs"[At-Tawbah 9:59]. "Al-Hasib" is exclusive to Allah; it is not said, "the Reckoner of the Messenger." And "Jah" (status or rank) of the Messenger: this is also not a term used for it. Is this person the "Jah" of the Messenger? Yes.

Sufficient for us is Allah; Allah will give us of His bounty
