Is al-Munji one of the names of Allah?
Question

                Is an-Naaji one of the beautiful names of Allah?
Praise be to Allah.
      Firstly: 
In 
    the answer to question no. 155206 we explained that 
    the names of Allah are a tawqeefi matter [i.e., they can only be known 
    through divine Revelation and sound texts of hadeeth, with no room for 
    ijtihad], and that they are affirmed by the texts of the Qur’an and Sunnah, 
    and there is no room for personal opinion or ijtihaad with regard to this 
    matter. 

    Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) said: 
It 
    is not permissible to ascribe any name or attribute to Allah, may He be 
    exalted, that is not mentioned in the Qur’an or Sunnah, because that is 
    speaking about Allah, may He be exalted, without knowledge.

    End quote from Majmoo‘ Fataawa wa Rasaa’il Ibn ‘Uthaymeen (4/230). 
In 
    the answer to question no. 155206 we also stated 
    that the names of Allah, may He be exalted, are more limited than His 
    attributes, and that His attributes are more limited than His deeds, so the 
    area of His attributes is broader in scope than the area of His names. 

    Coming, going, taking, withholding, striking and so on are all attributes 
    with which we may describe Allah, may He be exalted, but only in the way 
    that is mentioned in the texts, but we do not call Him by names indicative 
    of these things. So we do not say that the Comer, the Goer, the Taker, the 
    Withholder, and so on, are names of Allah, even though we may say that He 
    does these things and we may describe Him as doing these actions. 

    Secondly: 

    An-Naaji is not one of the names of Allah, may He be exalted, and it is not 
    one of his attributes. Perhaps what the questioner means is al-Munji, but 
    this is not one of the names of Allah either, because it is not mentioned in 
    any Islamic text. But it is permissible for us to describe Allah in such 
    terms, so we may say that Allah, may He be exalted, will save [yunji] His 
    believing slaves from the punishment in this world and the punishment in the 
    hereafter that will befall the disbelievers. Allah, may He be exalted, says 
    (interpretation of the meaning):

    “Then (in the 
    end) We save Our Messengers and those who believe! Thus it is incumbent upon 
    Us to save the believers”

    [Yoonus 10:103]

    “And when Our 
    Commandment came, We saved Hood and those who believed with him by a Mercy 
    from Us, and We saved them from a severe torment”

    [Hood 11:58]

    “There is not 
    one of you but will pass over it (Hell); this is with your Lord; a Decree 
    which must be accomplished.

    Then We shall save those who use to fear Allah and were 
    dutiful to Him. And We shall leave the Zalimoon (polytheists and wrongdoers, 
    etc.) therein (humbled) to their knees (in Hell)”

    [Maryam 19:71, 72]

    “And We saved 
    Moosa (Moses) and all those with him”

    [ash-Shu‘ara’ 26:65]

    “Say (O 
    Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)): ‘Who rescues you from 
    the darkness of the land and the sea (dangers like storms), when you call 
    upon Him in humility and in secret (saying): If He (Allah) only saves us 
    from this (danger), we shall truly be grateful.’

    Say (O Muhammad (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him)): 
    ‘Allah rescues you from it and from all (other) distresses, and yet you 
    worship others besides Allah’”

    [al-‘An‘aam 6:63-64]. 

    And there are many other similar verses in the Qur’an. Hence we describe 
    Allah, may He be exalted, as saving the believers from the punishment of 
    this world and the punishment of the hereafter, and as saving His slaves 
    from calamities, and we say that He is the one who saves the believers and 
    who saves the one who is in distress from his distress, and so on, but none 
    of that is by way of calling Him, may He be glorified, by such a name, or 
    making up names implying servitude to Him using such a name, such as calling 
    someone ‘Abd al-Munji (slave of the saviour) and so on.

    may He be exalted. 

    And Allah knows best.
