The Meaning of the Hadith: "Until Allah Delays Them"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I am confused by the meaning of the saying of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), "until Allah delays them." Does this mean that Allah (Mighty and Majestic) delays them in everything, such as entering Paradise, the resurrection, and the Reckoning? Or is the intended meaning the delay of something else?

Answer:
This is a matter of warning. This is a matter of warning. The hadith is general, meaning Allah delays them from the reward. It is delayed. In one narration, it says, "until Allah delays them in the Fire." In a narration of this hadith, it says, "until Allah delays them in the Fire." So there is a warning here regarding being late, yes, from the front rows, out of disdain for the reward and the merit, yes.
