The sound of a telephone ringing.
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
The questioner : I searched for the hadith that contains:?
The Shaykh : Yes! I reviewed it; but I have not yet reached a conclusion. Al-Hafiz Ibn Hajar mentioned it in his book *Fath al-Bari*, in the section on the Beautiful Names of Allah, under the hadith:Sunan Ibn Majah 3860Hasan (Darussalam); but he mentioned it and did not speak about it specifically. The rule following him is that if a hadith is mentioned and he is silent on it, it is hasan or sahih; but I cannot rely on this rule, so you should refer to the book if you have it.
The questioner : So al-Hannan is mentioned?
The Shaykh : Yes! Yes.
The questioner : With this exact wording: al-Hannan?
The Shaykh : Yes, yes.
The questioner : In the book *Fath al-Bari* by Ibn Hajar, under the Beautiful Names of Allah.
The Shaykh : Yes! Yes.
The questioner : Okay, there are five questions, if Allah wills.
The Shaykh : What Allah willed!
The Shaykh : Yes.
The questioner : Peace be upon you, and Allah's mercy and blessings.
The Shaykh : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.

Allah has ninety-nine Names, one hundred less one. Whoever counts them will enter Paradise.
