This by itself is a proof that Allah’s Mercy is infinite. He has created it in order to make one creature a means for the development and well-being of the other creature. He has created the quality of mercy for some other creature. The Prophet says: Do not turn your houses. The mercy of every other being, characterized by the ability of mercy, is partial and limited, and that quality too is not essentially its own, but bestowed by the Creator for a specific need and purpose. The benefit of reading Surah Baqarah for 3 days is an effective method of praying to Allah for urgent matters.
None else in the world is the bearer of such all-pervading, infinite mercy. That is, He alone is the Being Whose mercy is limitless, which covers the whole universe and blesses and benefits everything in it. He does not stand in need of any means or medium of knowledge.ģ5. He directly knows whatever has happened in the past, whatever exists at present and whatever will happen in the future. Nothing of this universe is unknown to Him. That is, He knows whatever is hidden from the creatures as well as whatever is known and visible to them. That is, He is the One besides Whom none else has the rank, position, attributes and powers of Godhead so that he may be worshiped and served as god.ģ4. Here, one should also understand that although in the Quran, the attributes of Allah Almighty have been stated in a unique way, which gives a clear concept of the divine Being, there are two places where the attributes of Allah have been mentioned in a most comprehensive way, in the verse of the Alkursi (Surah Al-Baqarah, Ayat 255) and in these verses of Surah Al-Hashr.ģ3. This mention of the divine attributes immediately after the above theme automatically gives man the feeling that he has not to deal with an ordinary being but with Almighty Allah Who has such and such attributes. These verses explain what kind of God He is, and what are His attributes, Who has sent this Quran to you, Who has placed these responsibilities on you, and before Whom you have to render an account of your deeds in the end. (59:22) He is Allah: there is no god but He the Knower of the unseen and the manifest, He is the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate.
