How many of God's "names" can you list? (every name that he has been given [legitamite names])

To the atheists: keep it to yourself, I don't want to hear it...if you "offend" me, I will report you instantly!

"The most beautiful names belong to God: so call on Him by them;..." (7:180)
Allah! there is no god but He! To Him belong the Most Beautiful Names. (Qur'an 20:8)

======================

there are more than 99 names or attributes of Allah

see it here

http://www.uv9.co.uk/A/index.htm




EDIT >>>=========================


islam recognizes monothiesm. Thats why we call God as "Allah" in islam.

The word "Allah" literally means itself, "The only one worthy to be worshipped". "Allah" comes from the Arabic word "elah" - (Arabic) means 'a god' or 'anything that is worshipped'. In Arabic "Al" means "The". Al-elah combines makes "The god", but it still doesn't mean what "Allah" means, because this could still be made plural. This word (elah) can be made plural, as in "aleha" and it can be male or female, and Allah does not have any gender. Therefore, the word "Allah" is perfected way to describe "the God", because it cannot be made plural, nor can it be made into a gender of either male or female. The reason for calling God , Allah is because 'Allah' is unique word unlike God. The word God can be play with. E.g. Goddess, Godfather, Godmother, TinGod.
Prophet Muhammad pbuh was asked to define "Allah", then the chapter 112 was revealed on him which says,
"Say: He is Allah, The One and Only. "Allah, the Eternal, Absolute.
"He begets not, nor is He begotten. And there is none like unto Him."
[Al-Qur’an 112:1-4]


hope this anwswers.

Why should you be offended? One cannot sin against man; one can only sin against God. Who are you to judge, sinner?
