Allah Names Mentioned in Quran

And (all) the Most Beautiful Names belong to Allah, so call on Him by them, and leave the
company of those who belie or deny (or utter impious speech against) His Names. They will
be requited for what they used to do. (Surat Al-A’raf 7:180)

Say, “Call upon Allah or call upon the Most Merciful. Whichever [ Allah name] you call –
to Him belong the best names.” And do not recite [too] loudly in your prayer or [too]
quietly but seek between that an [intermediate] way. (Surah Al-Isra 17:110)

And your Lord says, “Call upon Me; I will respond to you.” Indeed, those who disdain My
worship will enter Hell [rendered] contemptible. (Surah Ghafir 40:60)

Allâh! Lâ ilâhla illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He)! To Him belong
the Best Names. (Surat Taha 20:8)

Paradise.” (Sahih Al-Bukhari 50:894)
