Allah calls Himself Ar-Rahmaan— The Most Gracious, the intensely Merciful— is the One whose intense and perfect Mercy embraces the whole creation.
Rahmaan exhibits intensity linguistically, which is why the ending is -aan. Ar-Rahmaan highlights the magnitude, multiplicity, and extent of Allah ﷻ's mercy (rahmah), and the attribute of grace is inseparable from the All-Powerful.
رسول الله ، صلى الله عليه وسلم يقول: "جعل الله الرحمة مائة جزء فأمسك عنده تسعة وتسعين، وأنزل في الأرض جزءا واحداً، فمن ذلك الجزء يتراحم الخلائق حتى ترفع الدابة حافرها عن ولدها خشية أن تصيبه".
