Allah! there is no god but He! To Him belong the Most Beautiful Names. (Qur’an 20:8)
Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: ‘To God belongs 99 names, 100 minus 1, anyone who memorizes them will enter Paradise; He (God) is odd (odd number, he is the Only One), and He loves odd numbers (such as 99)’
