These two Names are some of the most frequently used Names of God in the Quran: ar-Rahman is used fifty seven times, while al-Raheem is used twice as much (a hundred and fourteen).[1] One conveys a greater sense of loving-kindness, the Prophet said:
Salaada ciid Waa labo rakcadood, wuxuu oranayaa sida saladaha kale Allahu Akbar, inta usan aqrin qiraa'ada wuxuu oranayaa 7 jeer Allahu Akbar rakcadda labaadna 5 jeer inta usan aqrin qiraa'ada.
