The Meaning of the Saying of Allah the Exalted: "A mercy from your Lord. Indeed, He is the Hearing, the Knowing," and a discussion on the name of Allah, the Hearing

The Shaykh : This means that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) sends the messengers and other things He sends as a mercy to the servants. And He said: And Allah the Exalted is the Lord of all things, in His care for the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and that the Exalted raised him with a special upbringing. These are two of the names of Allah; the first is al-Sami' (the Hearing), and it has two meanings.
The first meaning is the Responder, and the second meaning is the One Who Hears.
As for the first, meaning that al-Sami' (the Hearing) means the Responder, its evidence is the saying of Allah the Exalted: meaning the One who responds to the supplication. And from that also is the saying of the one praying: meaning He responded. And as for the second, from the meaning of the One Who Hears, it is from that.
