*Hadith on Mercy:*

*Show mercy to those on the earth*

*'Abdullah ibn Amr ibn' al-'As* (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Prophet (ﷺ) said:

*"The Compassionate One has mercy on those who are merciful. If you show mercy to those who are on the earth, He Who is in the heaven will show mercy to you."*
[Sunan Abi Dáwúd, #4941; Sunan at-Tirmidhi, #1924]

*حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُسَدَّدٌ، - الْمَعْنَى - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي قَابُوسَ، مَوْلًى لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم:*

*"‏الرَّاحِمُونَ يَرْحَمُهُمُ الرَّحْمَنُ ارْحَمُوا أَهْلَ الأَرْضِ يَرْحَمْكُمْ مَنْ فِي السَّمَاءِ ‏"‏*

*COMMENTARY:*

*"Those who are merciful":*

*Those who treat the creatures of the earth with mercy, including humans and animals, by being kind and charitable to them. Since the reward is of the same kind as the deed, then, in return for their merciful treatment, Allah, the Most-Merciful, will bestow His mercy on them.*

*"Be merciful to those on the earth":*

*The purpose of generalization is to include all kinds of creatures upon the earth, so the Muslim is to show mercy to the righteous and the sinner alike, and to the wild animals and birds.*

*"The One in the heaven will be merciful to you":*

*Allah who is in the heavens will have mercy upon you. It is not permissible to interpret the phrase "in the heavens" to mean Allah's dominion or otherwise, for, verily, Allah's elevation above His creation is established in the Qur'an, Sunnah, and the consensus of scholars. Saying that "Allah is in the heavens" does not mean that the heavens contain Him and that He is part of them - far Exalted is He above that. Rather, "in" means "above", meaning: above the heavens, elevated above all His creation.*

*إِنَّ هَـٰذِهِۦ تَذْكِرَةٌ... ۖ*

*والله أعلى وأعلم*

Hadith on Mercy

Jarir ibn 'Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said:

"He who shows no mercy to the people, Allah, the Exalted and Glorious, does not show mercy to him."
[Saheeh Muslim, #2319]

عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم:

‏ "‏مَنْ لاَ يَرْحَمِ النَّاسَ لاَ يَرْحَمْهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ"‏ ‏.‏

COMMENTARY:
He who does show mercy to people, Allah, Exalted and Glorified, will not show mercy to him. The word 'people' refers to those who deserve mercy, such as Muslims, non-Muslims under Muslims' protection, and the like. As for combatant non-Muslims, they aren't to be shown mercy. They should be killed. Allah described the Messenger and his companions in the Qur'an: "severe against disbelievers, but merciful among themselves."
[48:29]

Be Reminded.
You still have a bonus life line to earn a reward of haven fasted for a whole year (365/366) if you just fast 6 days in this month if Shawwal either consecutively or not.
