The Meaning of the Hadith: “I Ask You by the Right of Those Who Ask”

Question:
He says: How is the answer to the hadith, “I ask you by the right of those who ask”?

Answer:
The right of those who ask is the response. Allah, Exalted and Majestic, said: So it is a right that He obligated upon Himself. The right of the servants upon Allah is that He does not punish anyone who does not associate anything with Him. So Allah, Exalted and Majestic, made a right for those who ask upon Himself, and He made a right for the monotheists upon Himself, which He obligated upon Himself and no one obligated it upon Him. So the intended meaning of “the right of those who ask” is not seeking nearness to Allah through the deeds of those who ask, but rather it refers to one of the attributes of Allah, which is responding. Allah is All-Hearing, the Responsive, Blessed and Exalted is He. So you ask Him by His attribute, which is responding to those who ask. Although there is a discussion regarding this hadith; there is a discussion in its chain of narration, but if it is established, it is explained by this. Yes.
