In this video, Shaykh Yasir Qadhi begins covering the names derived from Rahima (Ar-Rahman, Ar-Raheem, Khayrar-Rahimeen, Arhamur-Rahimeen and Dhur-Rahma).
Hadith: Your Lord decreed upon Himself before creating the heavens and earth by 50,000 years a book full of rules stating “My Rahma (mercy) shall always overcome my Anger”.
Ar-Rahman – no other name like it, other than “Allah” itself. These names have an unique status. Both are the primary names of Allah. They are both linked, and are the only two names which any Surahs start with in the Qur’an. “Call upon Allah, or call upon Ar-Rahman. Whichever of these two you choose, all of the other names belong to him”
Hadith: The most beloved names to Allah are Abdullah and Abd-ArRahman.
Ar-Rahman is mentioned 57 times in the Qur’an. 50 times alone, and 7 times as a combo.
When Allah mentions the largest creation, His Thrown (Arsh), he uses Ar-Rahman. ie, “Ar-Rahman rose over the throne ” is mentioned 7 times.
The primary difference between Ar-Rahman and Ar-Raheem is that Ar-Rahman (mercy) is for all of His creation, while Ar-Raheem (mercy) is only for the Muslims.
Hadith: When Allah created the creation, He divided his mercy into 100 parts. 1 has been revealed to this world and because of it people are merciful to each other. He has saved 99 parts of his mercy and it will be used on the day of Judgment.
Hadith: If the disbeliever only knew how much mercy Allah has, even he would be optimistic of entering Jannah
It is an insult and is of the biggest of all sins to give up on the hope of Allah’s mercy. Allah says in the Quran: “Never give up hope of Allah’s mercy”
