Question:
Is it permissible to make du'a' using an attribute of Allah, such as saying, "O Mercy of Allah"?

This is not making du'a' using an attribute of Allah; this is making du'a' to the attribute itself, "O Mercy of Allah." This is not permissible. "O Face of Allah" is also not permissible. Say, "O Allah," and do not say, "O Mercy of Allah." Say, "O Allah, have mercy on me with Your mercy." Yes.
