Question:
May Allah protect you, Your Eminence, the father. The questioner asks: What is meant by "hope" in the Qudsi Hadith
I am as My slave expects of Me, so let My slave expect of Me what he wills?أنا عند حسن ظن عبدي بي فليظن عبدي بي ما شاء؟


Answer:
My brother, they interpreted the Hadith: "Good hope." I have good hope, so having good hope of Allah is part of tawhid (the oneness of Allah); this is part of tawhid. And having bad hope of Allah is a deficiency in tawhid or a lack of tawhid. Yes.
