Exegesis of the hesitation in the hadith regarding the taking of the soul of a believing servant

Question:
Al-Qudsi, and I have never hesitated over anything as I hesitated over taking the soul of a believing servant. Is this hadith authentic? And if it is authentic, what is the interpretation of this hesitation? And is it said to be one of the attributes of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He)?

Answer:
I know that it is authentic, we do not see clearly. And the meaning of the hesitation here is explained by the end of the hadith, which is his saying (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding Allah (Mighty and Majestic): "He hates death, and I hate its badness." This is the meaning of the hesitation of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He): that His believing servant hates death, and Allah hates the badness of His believing servant. So the meaning of the hesitation is not that He chooses between the two, doing it or not doing it. No, its meaning is that Allah hates what His believing servant hates. Indeed, Allah hates what His Muslim servant hates. So His believing servant hates it, and Allah hates what His servant hates. But Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) has decreed that the angels take it, and that when it comes, it is not averted. And Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) has mentioned that He hates some things. Does Allah the Exalted say?
Yusuf said that he hates sins, and he hates the sinners and dislikes them. So likewise, He hates the badness of His believing servant, or the badness of His believing servant. He hates that the believer is afflicted with something that causes him distress, or something that angers him, and He hates this which befalls His believing servant.
