Question:
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. How is that, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success? Listen to the chapters of the Sunnah and the community, in the chapter on the attributes that cannot be explained in terms of their reality, such as the hadithSahih al-Bukhari 6502. It is well known that the meaning is that Allah grants him success, so he does not hear except what Allah grants him success to hear, and he does not see except what Allah loves, and other such attributes. We hope for a detailed explanation of the matter regarding such attributes.
Answer:
This hadith is explained by its ending; the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not leave it unexplained in its ending, which is his saying (peace and blessings be upon him): "And if indeedSahih al-Bukhari 6502" This indicates that his saying Sahih al-Bukhari 6502 means that success is as in the end of the hadith, so the end of the hadith explains its beginning. For example, his saying (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding Allah the Exalted that He said: " in the taking of the soul of My believing servant, he explained it by saying: "He hates death and hates its approach," meaning that the hesitation is that Allah hates what His believing servant hates, not that the hesitation is the pause between two things where he does not know whether to do it or not. No, its meaning is that Allah hates what His believing servant hates; He hates death and hates its approach. So the texts explain one another; the explanation may be in its ending, before it, after it, or in its context.
In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. How is that, Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success? Listen to the chapters of the Sunnah and the community, in the chapter on the attributes that cannot be explained in terms of their reality, such as the hadith
