Ask ˹them, O Prophet˺, “To whom belongs everything in the heavens and the earth?” Say, “To Allah!” He has taken upon Himself to be Merciful. He will certainly gather ˹all of˺ you together for the Day of Judgment—about which there is no doubt. But those who have ruined themselves will never believe.

Bismillah
I feel that something which hindered my journey to Allah ﷻ
was my perception of Him.
Not really about ḥusn al-ẓann (having good thoughts of Allah),
but something deeper—
I started to link human behavior to Allah ﷻ.
And that was far more damaging than I ever realized.
When I slipped, I no longer felt the gentle breeze of return—
I felt the suffocating fear of fleeing.

Allah SWT said,
كَتَبَ رَبُّكُمْ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِ ٱلرَّحْمَةَ
which means:
Your Lord has taken upon Himself to be Merciful.
The clock had barely struck 3:00 a.m. when the wind roared against my window—loud, relentless, as if the night itself wanted me awake. The glass rattled, shadows shifted, and my heart stirred with unease.
Half-asleep and hesitant, I whispered into the phone, 'Lasa… I’m scared. Maybe someone’s outside the window.'

Two times in this chapter OUR Lord reminded us that He has taken upon Himself to be Merciful.
I never noticed this before.
Why would Allah swt tell us this twice, in the same surah ?
This surah covers so much , but to me what stood out was the internal struggle of man. Our internal struggles include
Our Iman in Allah , finding Him and then never losing Him.
Our reaction in hardships, understanding them and never letting them overtake us

'He has taken it upon Himself to be Merciful.' (Qur’an 6:12)
Just because the lights seem to go out,
doesn’t mean the dawn will not break.
It doesn’t mean His mercy will not shine through the darkness.
Day by day, as life appears to crumble,
as the trials multiply and the heart grows heavy,
the whisper comes: Where is the mercy of Allah?
Ya Allah… Your help is near.
