Question: It is said that descents are given so that a person feels that they are in exile and asks for mercy. Why is it necessary to ask for mercy specifically?

Answer: Because it helps you when you turn to the Creator and draw His attention to you.

Mercy is when the Creator takes into account your descent and wishes to help you.

Question: But we know that the Creator always hears our prayers. What is special about the moment when He shows mercy?

Answer: When you show the same mercy to each other, then the Creator acts the same way toward you.
