Question:
Are names derived from the attributes?

Answer:
Yes, indeed. Every name from which they derived an attribute. Al-Rahman and al-Rahim indicate mercy. Al-Rahman is general mercy. And al-Rahim is specific mercy. Every name among the names of Allah, from which they derived an attribute of the attributes of Allah. And for that reason, His names (Exalted and Majestic is He) are good. Yes.
