Al-rehman chapter of mercy bride of the quran. Mother to a child, god is more loving and merciful than the mother. The bride is the commander of the wedding if you want to know what the quran is about, read the al-rehman this is the chapter that will describe the entire quran. By the grammar rules, allah is feminine noun but he is man. Why does god give us revelation (texts) rather than just give us more prophets or talk to us directly. It is his way of connecting with humanity. 3rd line, praise god for the sake of god. Split request, now ask for help and guidance. Straight path: those who proclaim their faith you are (lowercase) muslim the path of the virtuous.
