Authenticity of Names of Allah: Navigating the Internet Charts

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: My question is about names of Allah. While I was studying about names of Allah I found that many charts available in Internet contain unauthentic names of Allah so I tried to find out the authenticity of some of the names, but I couldn’t find any reference for some of them. I heard that I can’t deny any names of Allah and also I can’t affirm new one. So in this situation how could I believe those names ? I can’t deny them because I didn’t give a reference as proof same as I can’t affirm them because also I don’t have any proof to say those names are authentic.

Bismillaah

A: A simple thing is refer to an experienced learned aalim. Don’t do studies on your own.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
