This name in the Quran

Each ayah below was read in its context and confirmed by two independent reviews, on one question: does this word name Allah here. Where the two disagreed the ayah was dropped. Some of them carry the name as a verb or in another form rather than as the noun itself.

  1. وَٱسۡتَغۡفِرُواْ رَبَّكُمۡ ثُمَّ تُوبُوٓاْ إِلَيۡهِۚ إِنَّ رَبِّي رَحِيمٞ وَدُودٞ

    And ask forgiveness of your Lord and then repent to Him. Indeed, my Lord is Merciful and Affectionate."

  2. وَهُوَ ٱلۡغَفُورُ ٱلۡوَدُودُ

    And He is the Forgiving, the Affectionate,

Al-Wadud is name 47 of the 99. A plain search of the Arabic text finds this word form in 2 ayat. The 2 ayat listed above are a different measurement: what the app's reviewers accepted as naming Allah here, and some of them carry the name as a verb or in another form, so the two numbers need not match.
