ALLAH has Ninety - Nine names, and he who memorized them all by heart will enter paradise. (SAHIH AL BUKHARI: 7392)

And to Allah belong the best names, so invoke Him by them. (Quran, NOAH 7:180)

Allah’s Messenger (SAW) said: Allah (SWT) has Ninety-Nine names, and whoever believes in their meanings and acts accordingly, will enter Paradise”. (Bukhari 8:41)

Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen said: What is meant by memorising them is not merely writing them on a piece of paper, then repeating them until you have memorised them… (Sahih Al-Bukhari 50:894)
