الرَّحِيم
The One who will show endless mercy to the believers in the Hereafter.
Reciting a name as many times as its abjad value is a common custom; it is neither fard nor wajib. In the Dua Kitaplığı app's dhikr counter, this name comes ready with its target count.
Rahim means the One whose mercy is unbroken and lasting. After the vast mercy of Rahman that encompasses the world, Rahim refers to an unending mercy in the Hereafter reserved for the believers. In the Quran it mostly appears side by side with the names Ghafur and Tawwab; in other words, it describes the tenderness that follows forgiveness.
In the Quran: It occurs in the basmala and in verse 3 of Surah al-Fatiha; in Surah at-Tur, verse 28, it is mentioned together with the name “Barr.”
It is commonly recited with the intention of attaining Allah’s mercy, well-being in the Hereafter and compassion in the heart. The sources give no fixed number or time; since its abjad value is 258, reciting it that many times is a traditional custom.
Rahim is a name in the form of an adjective and is a word that can also be used for people; indeed, in the Quran the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ is also described as “ra'ufun rahim” (kind and merciful). Even so, in practice “Abdurrahim” is preferred.
