Scholarly Explanation

All of these Names are close in meaning and all of them point to describing the Lord with mercy, generosity and kindness. They point to the great expanse of His mercy and gifts that encompass all that is existence, being granted in accordance to the dictates of His wisdom. The believers have been specifically singled out for this and they are granted a goodly and the best portion of this.

And had it not been for the grace of Allah and His Mercy on you, [Allah would have hastened the Punishment]. And that Allah is Ra'uf, Rahim.

[an-Nur (24): 20]

From “Explanation to the Beautiful and Perfect Names of Allah” — Shaykh as-Sa’di (d.1376H)
