The ruling on affirming the attribute of weariness for Allah (Mighty and Majestic)
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And Honorable Shaykh, may Allah make you truthful, in the hadithSahih al-Bukhari 43 does that affirm the attribute of weariness for Allah (Mighty and Majestic), or how is this?
Answer:
What is said, "Allah does not grow weary," is answered by saying: "He does not grow weary until you grow weary." The wording of the hadith is from the category of contrast, like[At-Tawbah 9:79] and like [Ali 'Imran 3:54]. So the principles are by contrast. You do not say "the plotting of Allah" alone; you say "and they plotted, and Allah plotted." Allah plots against whoever plots against Him or against His awliya (close friends of Allah). You answer with some of it and leave out some of it. These are matters of contrast that must all be brought together.
And Honorable Shaykh, may Allah make you truthful, in the hadith
Allah does not get tired (of giving rewards) but (surely) you will get tired
لا يمل الله حتى تملواAnswer:
What is said, "Allah does not grow weary," is answered by saying: "He does not grow weary until you grow weary." The wording of the hadith is from the category of contrast, like
so they ridicule them - Allah will ridicule them
فَيَسْخَرُونَ مِنْهُمْ سَخِرَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُمْAnd the disbelievers planned, but Allah planned
وَمَكَرُوا وَمَكَرَ اللَّهُ
