One Hundred Parts of Mercy
Salman reported that Allaah’s Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) said: Verily, Allaah created, on the same very day when He created the heavens and the earth, one hundred parts of mercy. Every part of mercy is coextensive with the space between the heavens and the earth and He out of this mercy endowed one part to the earth and it is because of this that the mother shows affection to her child and even the beasts and birds show kindness to one another and when there would be the Day of Resurrection, Allaah would make full (use of Mercy). (Muslim, 6634)

subhanAllah…indeed we can’t enter paradise without His mercy….how beautiful that day will be for the believers to witness Allah’s mercy
Mercy is the best creation Allah (swt) has created and He has even urged us (His creation) to always exercise it, because from patience (Sabur), we get Mercy (Gafur).
May the Mercy of Allah (swt) continue to abide with us all.
Thank you for this piece.

SubhanAllah.
The mercy of Allah (S.W.T.) is manifested in all of His creatures in this universe. This is especially in the lives of human beings; it is of a magnitude that we can not confine or measure, but we can point to some of mercies, so that we can be remind, and reflect on many others aspects of Allah’s immense mercy.
Subhan Allah.. So true brother Zakariyah and sister Gul
The mercy of Allah (S.W.T.) manifests itself in His overlooking the sins of the sinner when he unknowingly commits the sin then repents. Allah’s mercy is even beyond that; Allah (S.W.T.) changes the sins of the sinner, after his sincere repentance followed by righteous deeds, to good deeds (hasanat).
Allah (S.W.T.) says in surat Al-Furqan, (verse 70), what can be translated as, "…Those who repent and believe, and do righteous deeds, for those, Allah will change their sins into good deeds…"
All this is to prevent the sinners from feeling hopeless of the mercy of Allah (S.W.T.).
SUBHAN ALLAH,SO TRUE THERE IS NOTHING MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN ALLAH’S MERCY.
