characterised by modesty and concealmentحيي ستير يحب الحياء والستر
Sunan Abi Dawud 4012Sahih (Al-Albani)
that al-Tashtir is among the names of Allah the Exalted?"

Answer:
This hadith is authentic. "Indeed, Allah is al-Sattir" is authentic. This is a statement about Allah (Mighty and Majestic). As for classifying it among the names of Allah, I have not seen anyone mention it among the names; rather, it is a statement about Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Yes.
