الرأفة: الرحمة، وقد رؤف فهو رئف ورؤوف، نحو يقظ، وحذر، قال تعالى: لا تأخذكم بهما رأفة في دين الله [النور/ 2].

Exdore translation — not part of the source

er-Re'fe: Merhamet demektir. رؤف fiili kullanılmış olup o kişi رئف ve رؤوف'tur; bunlardan رئف, يقظ (uyanık) ve حذر (ihtiyatlı) kelimeleri gibidir. Yüce Allah şöyle buyurmuştur: "Allah'ın dininde (hükmünü uygularken) o ikisine karşı sizi acıma duygusu (re'fet) tutmasın" [24:2].
