Summary
Authentic hadiths list nine names of the Prophet SAW, and Taha and Yasin are not among them. Taha and Yasin appear in a weak hadith narrated by Abu al-Tufayl mentioning ten names, which is weak because of the narrators Sayf bin Wahab and Abu Yahya al-Taymi. Even so, most scholars agree in accepting Taha and Yasin as names of the Prophet SAW, including al-Bayhaqi, Qadhi Iyadh and al-Sakhawi. The hadith is also not in conflict with the authentic hadiths on his names.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Walaupun hadis ini berstatus dhaif, kebanyakan ulama bersepakat menerima Taha dan Yasin adalah salah satu nama Nabi Muhammad SAW.
