The Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) has been called by many names and titles in the Qur'an and Sunnah, each one of them describing a special quality of this exalted personality. In understanding them and reflecting upon them, we can, by the permission of Allah, increase in our love and following of the Messenger of Allah (salAllahu alayhi wasalam).
The names of the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) are of two types:
1.Those names that are specific to him and none of the Messengers before him had these names, like Muhammad, Ahmad, al-Aaqib, al-Hashir, al-Muqaffee and Nabi al-Malhama.
2.Those names and qualities that are not specific to him, and were shared by the Messengers before him, but are found in him in the most complete and perfect forms. Like: Messenger of Allah, His Prophet, His Servant, Prophet of Mercy etc.
