There are 99 names which are used only for Allah Almighty. Allah is His personal name. No one else can be called with this name. Allah created the entire universe, like the earth, the sky, the rivers, the mountains, vegetation, the moon, the sun and the stars etc. Moon and stars twinkle with His power. Birds fly with His order. He causes to rain and grows all kinds of productions.

Al Rahmaan and Al Raheem are two of the 99 names of Allah which refer to Allah’s quality of being kind, gentle, and merciful.

Al-Rahmaan (The Beneficent) is His qualitative name. It refers to the vastness of Allah’s mercy that He takes over His entire creatures equally. His air, rains and other kindnesses are equal for all, whether someone is good or bad. He gives us uncountable precious rewards without praying.

Al-Raheem (The Merciful) is other qualitative name of Allah Almighty and declaration of His special Mercy. He bestows specific rewards on His servants.

Allah says: “And he is Merciful (Raheem) to the believers.” [Sûrah al-Ahzâb: 43]
