الضَّارّ
The One who, as His wisdom requires, also creates hardship.
Reciting a name as many times as its abjad value is a common custom; it is neither fard nor wajib. In the Dua Kitaplığı app's dhikr counter, this name comes ready with its target count.
Darr means the One who causes harm. This name is not considered on its own; it is recited together with Nafi'. Since benefit and harm both come from the same will, it declares that a person should not expect harm from any being acting independently.
In the Quran: Surah al-An'am, verse 17, says: “If Allah touches you with harm, none can remove it but Him.”
It is there to declare that harm, too, happens by decree, and that no one can cause harm on their own. It is recited together with the name Nafi'; mentioning it alone is not common.
It is customary to recite it with the intention of protection from harm, and always together with the name Nafi'.
