THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum Arba'a. 25th day of Jumaadal Aakhir 1444AH (Wednesday 18th January. 2023). *_WHY WE REPEAT AR-RAHMAAN AND AR-RAHEEM IN OUR WORSHIP_*. BismilLah.
While we should be mindful of ALL of ALLAH’s names and attributes, we call ALLAH by HIS names Ar-Rahman and Ar-Raheem multiple times a day, and those are amongst the names ALLAH chose for us to repeat in every single prayer.
What do these names of ALLAH mean?
While both are often translated as the Most-Merciful, Ar-Rahman refers to ALLAH as the Owner of immense MERCY for those who choose to worship HIM, while Ar-Raheem refers to ALLAH as the One who bestows HIS MERCY on HIS entire creation even to idol worshipers. Throughout the day ALLAH reminds us of HIS immeasurable MERCY that HE grants us. If HE is telling us HE is so MERCIFUL, why wouldn’t we think of HIM in that way as well?
We Muslims should have good thoughts and expectations of ALLAH so that when we err, we don’t fall into despair, and when we need something, we know that ALLAH can grant it to us if it is for our best. We should never forget ALLAH’s MERCY and POWER, nor HIS JUSTICE, especially for those who are enjoying HIS Mercy but worshipping others. *_May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protects us from all satanic influences_*. Aameen.
