Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We received this question, Honorable Shaykh, regarding hope and fear. How is the Muslim to be between these two?
Answer:
That is, he does not prefer one side over the other; he is between fear and hope, like the two wings of a bird, as they say. However, when death is near, the side of hope and good opinion of Allah prevails, due to his saying (peace and blessings be upon him)Sahih Muslim 2877c Yes.
