Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is there a hadith that says, "Allah does not get tired until you get tired," and what is its meaning?

Answer:
Yes. The hadith was reported to that effect. The beginning of the hadith is: "As for you,
such actions as you are capable of performing, for Allah does not grow weary till you doمن العمل ما تطيقون فإن الله لا يمل حتى تملوا
Sunan Abi Dawud 1368Sahih (Al-Albani)
." This falls under the category of correspondence, like
But they plan, and Allah plansوَيَمْكُرُونَ وَيَمْكُرُ اللَّهُ
[Al-Anfal 8:30]
so they ridicule them - Allah will ridicule themفَيَسْخَرُونَ مِنْهُمْ سَخِرَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُمْ
[At-Tawbah 9:79]
. This is a matter of retribution and correspondence. Yes.
