Interpreting mercy as the will to do good
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And if something is found in the Tafsir al-Jalalayn that the meaning of *rahmah* (mercy) is the will to do good for its people, is this meaning incorrect?
Answer:
This is 100% incorrect. The meaning of *rahmah* is not the will to do good; rather, *rahmah* is on its own basis, on its own basis, and is not interpreted as the will to do good. Yes. But among its effects, among the effects of *rahmah*, are the foundations of good. Look at[Ar-Rum 30:50] This is among the effects of Allah’s *rahmah*. Yes. If Allah shows *rahmah* to His servants, He sends down rain, they benefit from it, the grass grows, and the earth becomes alive. This is among the effects of Allah’s *rahmah*. Yes.
