A statement on the faith of the angels and the prophets, and supplication: I ask You for gentleness in it

The questioner:
The Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him) found what you saw in this statement: that the angels’ faith does not waver and does not waver, and the prophets’ faith wavers and does not take, and the seller of the prophets’ faith wavers and takes.

The Shaykh:
And I do not know where he got this talk from. This is materialistic talk, and we do not enter into these matters. It is not befitting for us to enter into the faith of the angels and the faith of the messengers; we are below this level.

The questioner:
The Shaykh Abu Bakr (may Allah have mercy on him) asked: How can one reconcile the hadith regarding the issue of the Shari'ah and what the issue is, with his saying: “O Allah, I do not praise You as You deserve, but I ask You for sincerity in it”?

The Shaykh:
This is not a hadith. “I do not ask You to avert the decree, but I ask You for gentleness in it.” I do not know that this is a hadith that can be combined with the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding the evil of what You have decreed. Yes.
