Among the most cherished spiritual treasures of Islam are the Asmaul Husna, which are also known as the "Ninety-nine Names of Allah." These names reflect Allah's ﷻ attributes of mercy, might, wisdom, and limitless love toward His creation. The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: "Allah has ninety-nine names. Whoever memorises them will enter Paradise." At ShiaEdu, we teach these names as part of our Shia Namaz & Dua Course — where students learn how to call upon Allah by His beautiful names in their daily prayers.
This beautifully designed infographic presents all 99 Divine Names in Arabic with their English meanings — colour-coded by theme. Download it freely, print it for your home, share it with family, and make it part of your daily dhikr. Reciting Asmaul Husna is one of the most powerful acts of worship a believer can engage in.

The 99 Names of Allah are more than just words that you must learn by heart; they are a living dhikr that transforms your heart, purifies your soul, and takes you nearer to Allah Almighty. Some of the wonderful benefits of reciting Asmaul Husna regularly are highlighted by scholars studying Islam and Hadith.

Peace of Mind
Reciting Ya-Salam (Source of Peace) and Ya-Mu'min (Guardian of Faith) brings total peace to one's heart. The Holy Quran states: "Verily in the remembrance of Allah do hearts find rest." (13:28). The daily recital of these names removes worries from your heart and makes you trust Allah Almighty.
🌟
Forgiveness of Sins
Praying through Ya-Ghaffar (The Repeatedly Forgiving), Ya-Ghafoor and Ya-Afuww (The Pardoner) with conviction means opening the gates of mercy and forgiveness from Allah. The Holy Prophet ﷺ promised those who knew all of these names with full faith entry into paradise, and this happens with the grace of forgiveness.
💪
Strength in Hardships
Praying Ya-Sabur (The Patient), Ya-Qadir (The Omnipotent) and Ya-Wakeel (The Trustee) in hardships helps you build patience and trust in the power of Allah Almighty, removing feelings of helplessness and giving you the patience to see through His plan.
🌿
Soul Purification
Each name of Allah is associated with one of His attributes. When believers reflect on names such as Ya-Quddus (The Most Holy) or Ya-Barr (The Source of Goodness), they aim at incorporating the same attributes in their behaviour and become more honest, patient, generous, and compassionate.
🤲
Answered Duas
Calling upon Allah by the name most fitting your need is a powerful Sunnah. Need provision? Say Ya-Razzaq. Seeking guidance? Say Ya-Hadi. Seeking healing? Say Ya-Shafi. The Prophet ﷺ taught us that Allah loves to be called by His beautiful names — and He answers.
✨
Closeness to Allah
Asmaul Husna is not just recitation — it is a conversation with Allah ﷻ. Each name is a door. When reciting Ya-Wadood (The Most Loving), you become aware of the unchanging love that God has for you. With such awareness, worship becomes an experience of joy and intimacy rather than a burden.
