Meaning — English
Ar-Ra’uf is intensely, tenderly compassionate — a compassion that moves immediately and deeply when it sees suffering. The Prophet ﷺ is described as Ra’uf and Rahim (9:128) — attributes borrowed from the divine. His compassion is not distant sympathy; it is tender, active, and personal.
معنی — اردو
الرؤف گہری اور نرم رحمت ہے جو تکلیف دیکھ کر فوراً حرکت میں آتی ہے۔ نبی ﷺ کو بھی ‘رؤف رحیم’ کہا گیا (9:128)۔
In Daily Life
When you feel no one is truly moved by your suffering, Ar-Ra’uf’s compassion is real, deep, and personally directed at your situation. He is not indifferent.
