Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the validity of this phrase: "Praise be to Allah, Who is not praised for any ill other than His"?
Answer:
As has passed before you, whatever is decreed by Allah is all good. It is divided into two categories: good and evil with respect to the servants, but with respect to Allah, it is all good, because He is just. He, Glorified and Exalted is He, placed things in their proper places, so He is praised for that. Yes.
