Mercy is required for all creatures. He singled out people due to His particular care for them.
Allah is the Most Merciful and He shows mercy to His merciful servants, for recompense is of the same type as one's deeds.
Being merciful to people includes bringing what is good to them, averting evil from them, and treating them kindly.
