The Most Compassionate, who is tender toward His servants.
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.
Ra'uf means the One who is most compassionate. The difference between mercy (rahmah) and compassion is a subtle one: mercy conveys the granting of blessings, while ra'fah conveys gentleness in removing hardship. In the Quran it mostly comes together with Rahim.
In the Quran: Surah al-Baqarah, verse 143, says: “Indeed, Allah is Most Kind and Most Merciful to people.”
It means the Most Compassionate, who deals gently with His servants. His lightening of burdens and His wishing ease for them are explained by this name.
It is commonly recited with the intention of growing in compassion and of anger subsiding.
