Question:
Is al-Sittar one of the names of Allah the Exalted? And is al-Musayyir one of the names of Allah, Glorified and Exalted?
Answer:
Al-Sittar is reported to be one of the names of Allah, but al-Sittar, this al-Sittar, is mentioned in the hadith. As for al-Musayyir, it is not one of the names of Allah; rather, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said it when they complained to him that prices had risen and asked him to fix prices for them. He said: This is a matter of informing, not a matter of naming. It is informing that prices are in the hand of Allah, Glorified and Exalted. Yes.
