It has a scan of the 99 names of Allah, swt. Allah is the arabic name for God, the Almighty. The translations of Asmaehusna are taken from various sources listed in credits at the end. The orchid photographs are downloaded from the Internet. The middle-eastern sounding music used is actually a Hamd, using no musical instrument, other than the human voice-box. It has been rendered by Mohammed Owais Raza Qadri. It was downloaded from his web-site. Since this segment is approx 5-minutes, it has been repeated once.

99 Name of Allahby RiyedislamCNBD11,877 views
ADDENDUM & NOTES VI:
6. In the Hamd used in this video, the renderer, Md Owais Raza Qadri seems to have missed out 'Al-Wadud'. It is there in the video, but since I can not doctor the audio, without destroying its beauty, I have not done anything about it.

ADDENDUM & NOTES V:
5 (Contd.). Further, the word 'Allah' is basically an abridgement of 'Al-Ilah', which means, The Divinity, or, The Master, and is thus the master term for reference to God. The 99 names, on the other hand, are really some of the relevant 'properties' of God. Thus, I felt that the word 'Allah' and the other 99 names differ in kind- and have not considered 'Allah' as one of the 99 names.

ADDENDUM & NOTES IV:
5. Some sources use 'Al-Wahid' & 'Al-Ahad' as separate names. Others do not use 'Al-Ahad' at all. Yet others use a single name 'Al-Wahid-ul-Ahad'. The implication is that those sources which use those two as separate names, do not include 'Allah' as one of the 99 names. I have followed this same policy, since I feel that 'Al-Wahid and 'Al-Ahad' have distinct meanings ('The Unique' and 'The One' respectively).

ADDENDUM & NOTES III:
3. The only guttural sounds that are marked in the Nagari writing correspond to 'Ain and Ghain. Others are not marked, since Urdu/Hindi speakers are not very familiar with (Arabic) gutturals.
4. The word 'Asma-e-Husna' is used instead of 'Asma-ul-Hasna' or 'Asma-al-Hasna'. This is because the source I used, uses this version.

ADDENDUM & NOTES II:
2. Standard Indian pronunciation (as in Hindi / Urdu) is used in the Nagari writing for tha, dhaal and dhwaad (say, zaal and zwaad in Urdu). The English and Printed Nagari versions, more or less, still carry the Arabic pronunciation. I have, instead, used the local pronunciation since we in India are not very familiar with the Arabic pronunciations.

ADDENDUM & NOTES I:
1. I have made a mistake in the Devanagari writing- I have written Malikulmulk instead of the correct MAALIKULMULK. This happened since I was using English as the basic text instead of Arabic, and the English spelling of the two words is identical. This will be corrected at a future date, God willing.
