description | Divine mercy has two perpetual flows, one as compassionate mercy and the other asmerciful mercy, which flow over the entire universe. The former forms the creation and thelatter causes the creation to achieve its final growth. God created man to grow and take himfrom the former to the latter. God' compassionateness refers to His Lordliness. The world is aplace for growth. God is the Lord of all creatures and provides the ground for thedevelopment, florescence, and realization of all capacities. This is the man who must create akind of capacity in himself to attain Divine mercy in order to be included in Godcompassionate and merciful mercy in the world and hereafter. Using a descriptive-analyticalmethod, the present paper seeks to comparatively review Divine mercy from the view of Shiaand Sunni commentators. First, it reviews literal and idiomatic meaning of mercy and thenstudies the position of Divine mercy in the Holy Quran and traditions, with regard to Shiaand Sunni views. Finally it explains the difference between these two kinds of mercy andspecifies that curse which is contrary to mercy is not a category of speech; rather, it meansseparation from mercy. There is no discrimination in Divine mercy; rather, everyone canreceive Divine mercy according to the capacity that he attains.Key words: mercy, compassionate mercy, merciful mercy, curse, commentary, Shia andSunni. |
