Mercy Concept Revision, Especially in Its Attribution to God

The description of mercy in the Holy Qur'an has been attributed to God Almighty many times in various forms and fundamental and very important works have been attributed to it; therefore, promoting knowledge about it is important and useful. It is clear that the analysis of the "divine mercy" concept is primarily dependent on mercy concept itself. The present study intends to extract a more accurate definition of the mercy concept in a descriptive-analytical manner and then provide a more accurate concept of "divine mercy". Of course, in this way, semantic solutions have been used appropriately. In general, mercy in its original meaning is the inner desire to deliver good to the deceased, which arises from common love. As for the mercy of God Almighty, in spite of some statements, the meaning of mercy does not mean anything other than the conventional concept; however, sometimes the act of divine bestowal or reward or the external example of divine blessing and grace is also referred to as mercy.
