The Merciful Are Shown Mercy by the All-Merciful

عن عبد اللَّه بن عمرو - رضي الله عنهما - قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: الراحمون يرحمهم الرحمن، ارحموا من في الأرض يرحمكم من في السماء

‘An ‘Abdi Llāhi bni ‘Amr, radiya Llāhu ‘anhumā, qāla, “Qāla Rasūlu Llāhi sallā Allāhu ‘alayhi wa sallam, ‘ar-rāhimūna yarhamuhumu r-Rahmān. Irhamū man fi l-ardi, yarhamukum man fi s-samā’.’”

On the authority of ‘Abd Allāh ibn ‘Amr - may Allāh be pleased with both of them - who said, “The Messenger of Allāh - may Allāh bless him and give him peace - said, ‘The merciful are shown mercy by the All-Merciful. Be merciful to those on Earth, and the One in the Heavens will have mercy upon you.’”
