At-Tawwab
التواب
Name of Allah
The Accepter of Repentance — the one who turns to those who turn to Him.
Overview
At-Tawwab — The Accepter of Repentance: the one who turns to those who turn to Him.
The form التواب occurs in 6 ayahs (for example 2:37, 2:54, 2:128). Those passages are listed below, found by matching the Arabic word form rather than the translation.
The enumeration of ninety-nine names comes from a hadith, not from the Quran, and the lists differ between narrations. IslamicGraph records the traditional set and shows, for each name, the ayat where that exact Arabic form occurs — so what rests on the Quran and what rests on the enumeration stay visible as different things.

Ar-Rahim and At-Tawwab occur together in the same ayah 6 times. The pairing is a feature of the text itself — these are the ayat where both names are named, found by matching the Arabic word forms, not an editorial grouping.
