NAMES OF ALLAH

Names of ALLAH are recited to invoke him (as DUA'S) for obtaining benefits.
A'DADS (total of numbers assigned to alphabets) are mentioned in brackets against each DUA.
It is the duty of sincere & pious servants of ALLAH to seek help & fulfillment of their desire from their LORD, but since He knows best what is good for us & there fore we may not have that, which is asked for, yet we are bound to go on invoking HIM, in the strict compliance with the instructions of AMEERUL MOOMINEEN ALI IBN ABI TALIB (A.S.).
 “Only ALLAH knows the exact number of his names.”
*  1000 names of “ALLAH” are known only to angels.

 ONE name of ALLAH is kept hidden in the holy QUR’AN, which is called “ISME AZAM” or the greatest name of ALLAH, which makes a total of 3000 names of ALLAH. Those who recite holy QUR’AN may recite this greatest name of ALLAH but may not be able to identify it. Hazrat ALI (A.S.) was the one who knew this name.
