Name #2
ٱلرَّحِيم
Ar-Raheem
The Most Merciful
Reflection
The mercy specifically reserved for the believers in the next life. While Ar-Rahman covers all of creation in this world, Ar-Raheem is the intimate, eternal mercy waiting in Paradise.
Reference: Quran 1:3
How to Use This Name
Believers are encouraged to call upon Allah by His names: "And to Allah belong the best names, so invoke Him by them" (Quran 7:180). When you ask, ask through the name that fits your need — ask Ar-Raheem when you need the most merciful.
