The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, in the hadithSahih al-Bukhari 43, does that establish the attribute of weariness for Allah, or how is this?
The Shaykh:
What is said is that Allah does not grow weary; it is said, "He does not grow weary until you grow weary." This is a response to the wording of the hadith, and it falls under the category of contrast, like[At-Tawbah 9:79], and like, and like. And mention. Allah knows best. Contrast. You do not say. He asks Allah about al-Baqarah. You say. [Ali 'Imran 3:54]. Or through His awliya (close friends of Allah), so you answer part of it and leave out the rest. These are matters of contrast that must all be included.
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, in the hadith

لا يمل الله حتى تملواThe Shaykh:
What is said is that Allah does not grow weary; it is said, "He does not grow weary until you grow weary." This is a response to the wording of the hadith, and it falls under the category of contrast, like

فَيَسْخَرُونَ مِنْهُمْ سَخِرَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُمْAnd the disbelievers planned, but Allah planned
وَمَكَرُوا وَمَكَرَ اللَّهُ
