Everyone can see the effects of God's mercy. But who, except God himself, understands the essence of his mercy? Most people cannot understand the essence of any of God's attibutes; they only know his attributes through their effects -- and also through analogy. Only mystics have eyes to see the essence of God's attributes. -Rumi, "Masnavi"
