Attributing Some of the Names of God to the Prophet

TLDR: Sahih Hadith attributes some of God's names to the prophet

They also attribute some of the Almighty attributes of God to the prophet in the Hadith.

Narrated Muawiya: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “If Allah wants to do good for somebody, he makes him comprehend the Religion (i.e. Islam), and Allah is the Giver and I am Al-Qasim (the distributor), and this (Muslim) nation will remain victorious over their opponents, till Allah’s Order comes and they will still be victorious.”

سَمِعَ مُعَاوِيَةَ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ “‏ مَنْ يُرِدِ اللَّهُ بِهِ خَيْرًا يُفَقِّهْهُ فِي الدِّينِ، وَاللَّهُ الْمُعْطِي وَأَنَا الْقَاسِمُ، وَلاَ تَزَالُ هَذِهِ الأُمَّةُ ظَاهِرِينَ عَلَى مَنْ خَالَفَهُمْ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ وَهُمْ ظَاهِرُونَ ‏”‏‏.‏

Sahih al-Bukhari 3116 https://sunnah.com/bukhari:3116

God alone is Al-Qasim ( الْقَاسِمُ ), the Distributor, as He is the only one who provides and chooses.

[51:58] GOD is the Provider, the Possessor of all power, the Supreme.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ

[34:39] Say, “My Lord is the One who controls all provisions; He increases the provisions for whomever He chooses from among His servants, or reduces them. Anything you spend (in the cause of God), He will reward you for it; He is the Best Provider.”

قُلْ إِنَّ رَبِّى يَبْسُطُ ٱلرِّزْقَ لِمَن يَشَآءُ مِنْ عِبَادِهِۦ وَيَقْدِرُ لَهُۥ وَمَآ أَنفَقْتُم مِّن شَىْءٍ فَهُوَ يُخْلِفُهُۥ وَهُوَ خَيْرُ ٱلرَّٰزِقِينَ

[28:68] Your Lord is the One who creates whatever He wills, and chooses; no one else does any choosing. Glory be to GOD, the Most Exalted. He is far above needing partners.

وَرَبُّكَ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُ وَيَخْتَارُ مَا كَانَ لَهُمُ ٱلْخِيَرَةُ سُبْحَـٰنَ ٱللَّهِ وَتَعَـٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يُشْرِكُونَ

5	wayakhtāru	وَيَخْتَارُ	and He chooses.
6	mā	مَا	Not
7	kāna	كَانَ	it was
8	lahumu	لَهُمُ	for them
9	l-khiyaratu	ٱلْخِيَرَةُ	the choice.

Narrated Jubair bin Mutim: Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) said, “I have five names: I am Muhammad and Ahmad; I am al-Mahi (The Eraser) through whom Allah will eliminate infidelity; I am al-Hashir (The Summoner) who will be the first to be resurrected, the people being resurrected there after; and I am also al-Aqib (The Last).

حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَعْنٌ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏ “‏ لِي خَمْسَةُ أَسْمَاءٍ أَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، وَأَحْمَدُ، وَأَنَا الْمَاحِي الَّذِي يَمْحُو اللَّهُ بِي الْكُفْرَ، وَأَنَا الْحَاشِرُ الَّذِي يُحْشَرُ النَّاسُ عَلَى قَدَمِي، وَأَنَا الْعَاقِبُ ‏”‏‏.‏

Sahih al-Bukhari 3532 https://sunnah.com/bukhari:3532

God alone is al-Mahi ( الْمَاحِي ), The Eraser, who erases what He wills.

[13:39] GOD erases whatever He wills, and fixes. With Him is the original Master Record.

يَمْحُوا۟ ٱللَّهُ مَا يَشَآءُ وَيُثْبِتُ وَعِندَهُۥٓ أُمُّ ٱلْكِتَـٰبِ

God alone is al-Hashir ( الْحَاشِرُ ), the Summoner.

[25:17] On the day when He summons them, together with the idols they had set up beside GOD, He will say, “Have you misled these servants of Mine, or did they go astray on their own?”

(١٧) وَيَوْمَ يَحْشُرُهُمْ وَمَا يَعْبُدُونَ مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ فَيَقُولُ ءَأَنتُمْ أَضْلَلْتُمْ عِبَادِى هَـٰٓؤُلَآءِ أَمْ هُمْ ضَلُّوا۟ ٱلسَّبِيلَ

1	wayawma	وَيَوْمَ	And (the) Day
2	yaḥshuruhum	يَحْشُرُهُمْ	He summons them
3	wamā	وَمَا	and what
4	yaʿbudūna	يَعْبُدُونَ	they worship
5	min	مِن	from
6	dūni	دُونِ	besides
7	l-lahi	ٱللَّهِ	God

God alone is al-Aqib ( الْعَاقِبُ ).

In the Hadith, they translate this word as “the last,” but this word means more than just last. This word signifies “the ultimate outcome,” “the end result,” or “the final consequence.” None of these attributes are applicable to God’s servant, but only to God alone.

[57:3] He is the Alpha and the Omega. He is the Outermost and the Innermost. He is fully aware of all things.

هُوَ ٱلْأَوَّلُ وَٱلْـَٔاخِرُ وَٱلظَّـٰهِرُ وَٱلْبَاطِنُ وَهُوَ بِكُلِّ شَىْءٍ عَلِيمٌ

1	huwa	هُوَ	He (is)
2	l-awalu	ٱلْأَوَّلُ	the First / Alpha
3	wal-ākhiru	وَٱلْـَٔاخِرُ	and the Last / Omega,
4	wal-ẓāhiru	وَٱلظَّـٰهِرُ	and the Apparent / Most Obvious / Outermost
5	wal-bāṭinu	وَٱلْبَاطِنُ	and the Hidden / Innermost,
6	wahuwa	وَهُوَ	and He (is)
7	bikulli	بِكُلِّ	of every
8	shayin	شَىْءٍ	thing
9	ʿalīmun	عَلِيمٌ	fully aware.

All Power Belongs to God Alone

[34:22] Say, “Implore the idols you have set up beside GOD. They do not possess as much as a single atom in the heavens, or the earth. They possess no partnership therein, nor does He permit them to be His assistants.”

قُلِ ٱدْعُوا۟ ٱلَّذِينَ زَعَمْتُم مِّن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ لَا يَمْلِكُونَ مِثْقَالَ ذَرَّةٍ فِى ٱلسَّمَـٰوَٰتِ وَلَا فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا لَهُمْ فِيهِمَا مِن شِرْكٍ وَمَا لَهُۥ مِنْهُم مِّن ظَهِيرٍ

[10:32] Such is GOD, your rightful Lord. What is there after the truth, except falsehood? How could you disregard all this?

فَذَٰلِكُمُ ٱللَّهُ رَبُّكُمُ ٱلْحَقُّ فَمَاذَا بَعْدَ ٱلْحَقِّ إِلَّا ٱلضَّلَـٰلُ فَأَنَّىٰ تُصْرَفُونَ
