Ninety Nine Names of ALLAH : Part 3

The Names of ALLAH are connected with the life of man. All aspects of life can be seen in the Names. When a man is given a Name which relates to one of the 99 Names of ALLAH it should always be preceded by Abd (servant of).

He who would like to repeat a Name of ALLAH should first say at least 700 times: La ilaha illa'llah Muhammad Rasulullah ( There is no god no power {most most most extreme} but ALLAH and Muhammad is His Messenger)

To begin, one should clean oneself with a full ablution making certain that all parts of the body are touched by water. If this is not possible one should perform wuzu ( the washing of the parts of the body which are generally exposed ), as if preparing for prayers. On the days of the repetition one should not eat meat. The place chosen for the repetition should be clean. If these guidelines are- observed the answer of ALLAH could be quick.

Preferably the person should be alone and the repetitions said during the night.
