The Ruling on Supplicating to Allah by His Beautiful Names
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Abu 'Abd al-Rahman, the Honorable Shaykh, says: I read in one of the books in one of the libraries that a person discovered that each of Allah's beautiful names has an energy that stimulates the immune system to work intensely in the organs of the human body. He was also able to discover that merely mentioning one of Allah's beautiful names leads to an improvement in the flow of vital energy within the human body. What is your opinion of this claim? Is it correct?
Answer:
This is a statement that cannot be relied upon. However, as for the names of Allah, as Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) said:[Al-A'raf 7:180], one should supplicate to Allah by them: "O Merciful, have mercy on me; O Forgiver, forgive me; O Accepter of Repentance, accept my repentance; O Provider, provide for me." Every name by which Allah is called and by which one seeks nearness to Him, call upon Him by it. This is what is required. Yes.

And to Allah belong the best names, so invoke Him by them.
