Authenticity of the 99 names of Allah, I’ve heard only 69 names are authentic. Is it true? What about the other names that we use?

ANSWER:
These are all efforts of our scholars to compile what they think are the names of Allah. However, no one can guarantee that these are the names as there isn’t any authentic hadeeth listing them.

An-Nawawi said, “To preserve them is said to mean to enumerate and count them in one’s supplication by them. It is said it means to persevere in them, to respect them in the best manner, to guard what they require, and to affirm their meanings. And it is said the meaning is to act by them and to obey Allah according to the implications of every name.”

Seven Kings Mosque shooting: Gunman fires during Ramadan prayers in east London
Richard Hartley-Parkinson
Friday 10 May 2019 6:09 amArmed police were scrambled to an east London mosque after a ‘masked’ gunman entered the building during Ramadan prayers before discharging a firearm outside.
Worshippers at the Seven Kings Mosque in Ilford were part-way through evening prayers late on Thursday when the sound of a gunshot rang out.
A man, said to have had his face covered, was reported to have entered the mosque on High Road, but was made to leave before firing the gun.
Scotland Yard said early investigations suggested that a ‘blank firing handgun’ had been discharged.
This morning they added that it was connected to an earlier incident in the street close to the mosque.
No injuries or damage to the building were reported and detectives were not treating the incident as terrorism-related, the force said.

Police quickly descended on the scene in east London after the gunshot was heard (Picture: LNP)Worshipper Ibraheem Hussain, 19, described hearing the gunshot around half an hour after prayers began.
He said: ‘There’s three sections of the mosque and at taraweeh (evening prayers) during this time of Ramadan the mosque is packed out.
‘We were upstairs in the classrooms and about 30 minutes into the night prayer a large noise went off.
‘I just continued my prayer, it sounded like a firework or maybe something heavy had been dropped, so no-one really thought anything of it.
‘After we finished we were leaving the shoe area and someone said it was a gunshot, someone had come into the mosque and he had a firearm on him.
‘The managers had seen him, he was masked and acting suspicious and the firearm was let off.’
