Question:
The Shaykh said: Regarding the saying of Allah the Exalted, "And your Lord is not unjust to the servants," is it correct to say that "unjust" (dhallam) here is a form of exaggeration?
Answer:
Yes, yes. Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) is not ashamed of the excess of anyone, but He rewards people according to their deeds. So those who do evil deeds, He rewards them with their deeds only, and does not add to their deeds. As for those who do good deeds, He rewards them with their deeds and adds to them from His grace, and multiplies for them from His grace.
