Benefits
Islam is the religion of mercy, and it is entirely based upon obedience to Allah and benevolence to the creation.
Allah Almighty possesses the attribute of mercy, and He, Exalted be He, is the Most Merciful, the Ever-Merciful, and He brings mercy to His servants.
Recompense is of the same type of action. So, the merciful people are shown mercy by Allah.
