" According to the Qur'ân, the names Allâh and Rahmân are

quasi-equivalent: " Call Him Allâh or call Him Rahmân, to Him

belong the most beautiful names " ; which indicates the as it were

Shaktic character of the name Rahmân. The name Rahîm,

'Merciful', in a way prolongs the name Rahmân, 'Gracious'; it

prolongs it in view of the creatures, and in this sense it is taught

that Allah, who is Rahmân in His Substance, is Rahîm in

relation to creation. The great Shakti in Islam is the rahmah: it is

the Goodness, Beauty, and Beatitude of Allah. (Note that in Arabic

the word rahmah is derived from the root rahim, a word signifying

'womb', and this corroborates the interpretation of the rahmah as

Divine Femininity, thus as mahâshakti.) "
