Familiarity with the rules of semantics, one of the branches of linguistics, helps man to look at texts from the perspective of the speaker or writer and to achieve a continuous chain of meaning by reflecting on the context and collocations of words. The word "mercy", the subject of this article, is one of the divine attributes of actions, and man can have this attribute by providing the necessary grounds. The present research seeks to answer this question: " In terms of collocation, what is the meaning of mercy in the Qur'an?" The data collection method was library-based and the research method used in this paper was descriptive- analytical aiming at investigating the meaning of mercy through its collocations in the Qur'anic applications. the research findings include some positive active words in obtaining mercy (obedience and request for mercy), negative active words (ingratitude and sin), words made from mercy (resurrection of the earth and gentleness), and words accompanied by mercy (God, faith, and righteous deeds). According to the research findings, the relative meaning of "mercy" in the Qur'an is "support" with two sub-categories: "general support" which includes all beings and "special support" which God Almighty grants only to pious believers
