Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is al-Sa'tir considered one of the names of Allah, or is it al-Saytir?
Answer:
Al-Sa'tir, no. But al-Sitar and al-Saytir are both forms of exaggeration, so al-Sitar or al-Saytir means the same thing. As for al-Sa'tir, no, that is not what was transmitted.
