Does the hadith indicate that Allah may listen to one thing more than another?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : In this hadith, is it said that Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) varies in His will, such that He listens to one thing more than another?

Answer : Yes, that is right. That is, whatever Allah has not permitted as He permitted this thing, it differs. Just as His turning toward His servants differs, and just as His reward for His servants differs. If one of you were to spend a mountain of gold, he would not reach the mudd (a quarter of a sa') of one of them, nor half of it.
