Dought & clear - , He is asking about a book about the ninety-nine names of Allaah.

I would like to know the fatwa on a book called"the 99 beautiful names
of allah" written by moulana mohammed idnees meerthi.
Praise be to Allaah.
We do not know of this book and we have not read it so we cannot pass
any comment on it. But the scholars, both classical and contemporary,
have studied the ninety-nine names of Allaah that the Prophet (peace
and blessings of Allaah be upon him) referred to when he said: "Allaah
has ninety-nine names, one hundred less one; whoever memorizes them
will enter Paradise." Narrated by al-Bukhaari (2736) and Muslim
(2677).
Many scholars have striven to derive the names of Allaah from
theQur'aan and Sunnah, and they have laid out guidelines by means of
which they found out the names of Allaah, mayHe be exalted.
We should point out twothings here:
1 – The scholars have defined these names of the basis of what each
one of them thought was appropriate, and we cannot be certain that
these are what the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon
him) meant.
2 – The hadeeth that is narrated by al-Tirmidhi in which these names
are listed is da'eef (weak) according to the consensus of the You
