Is Allah's Mercy is for the Believers and the Disbelievers?

This is a new series (1-3) of Verse No. in the Bible versus the Quran.

Verse No. 3 in the Old Testament says that God said, "Let there be light," and there was light..

Verse No. 3 in the New Testament says that Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram.

Verse No. 3 in the Noble Quran says that  Allah is The Beneficent, The Most Gracious, The Compassionate, The Most Merciful.

----------------------

The verse No. 3 in the Old Testament is Genesis 1:3

The verse continues talking about the creation of the heavens and the earth, it says: God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

----------

The verse No. 3 in the New Testament is Matthew 1:3

The verse continues talking about the Genealogy of Jesus Christ, it says: And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Thamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram;

Herein, there is a problem in writing the names in the different four versions of the Bible; it goes without saying that the names of the people have no translation, they have to be written as they are. For example, the name Muhammad is Muhammad in Arabic, English, French, Spanish etc.

The names in the verse studied are quite different from one version to another.

In the four versions of the Bible studied we find the following:

Perez,  Zerah and Ram are found in three versions and  they are Phares and Zara in

Judah and Hezron are found in two versions and they are Judas Esrom in the other two versions.

This is a constant phenomenon that is the difference in writing and pronouncing the names of persons and places and is common throughout the different versions of the Bible

Again, it should be emphasized that the genealogy of Jesus is not mentioned in the Old Testament; also the Biblical scholars claim that there are many prophecies about Jesus in the Old Testament

On the other hand,  the genealogy of Jesus is mentioned in the Noble Quran; the Quran mentions Jesus many times, in each time it says "Jesus the son of Mary".  Nevertheless, Matthew 3:3 says that Jesus is the son of David, the son of Abraham.

---------

Verse No. 3 in the Noble Quran is Chapter 1:3, Surah AL-FAATEHAH (THE KEY), 1:3

The verse says that Allah is The Beneficent, The Most Merciful

It is also translated and interpreted as:

The Most Gracious, The Most Merciful or The Compassionate, The Most Merciful or The Gentle, The Most Merciful.

These are the translation of the two Arabic words: al-Rahman, al-Raheem

It means that Allah is the One who possesses ‘mercy’, which means to want what is good for those who deserve it.

However, the root of these two al-Rahman, al-Raheem is Rahem.

Rahem in Arabic is the uterus (womb) of the human female.

The uterus is place where the baby is generated.

The mercy, compassionate or kindly forbearance of the mother shown toward her baby is well known; She performs countless mercies for her baby.

Allah says that He created the uterus and He made the mothers (of human and the animals) perform countless mercies for their baby; and Allah said:

And I derived my names al-Rahman, al-Raheem from it, so take care of your Rahem and perform mercies for them.

Who are my Rahem?

They are my father, mother and wife; my sons and my daughters, my grand father and grand mother, my brothers and my sisters, then all of my relative through my mother and my father.

On the other hand, the Prophet Muhammad illustrates the Mercy of Allah and said to his friends:

Look at this mother and her baby! Do you think that she could or would throw her baby in a fire? 

They answered: Of course no. 

The Prophet Muhammad said: Allah's Mercy for mankind is much more than this mother's mercy for her baby.

Now what is the difference between al-Rahman and al-Raheem if they come from one root?

The word al-Rahman means that Allah's Mercy is unconditioned, it is for every creature, every man whatever he is, regardless his faith, Allah is Merciful for both the believers and the disbelievers in the life of this world; remember that Allah provides the believers and the disbelievers with their eyes, ears, brains, hands, nerves, foot etc.

The word al-Raheem means Allah Mercy is only for the believers in the Afterlife i.e. Allah's Mercy is conditioned and it is only for those who believe in Allah.
