Is Allah's jealousy the same as His sense of honor?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Your Eminence! Imam al-Nawawi mentioned in *Riyad al-Salihin* the hadith of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): (that Allah is jealous, and Allah's jealousy is that a person does what Allah has forbidden) and he stated that by jealousy he means: a sense of honor. Is this considered a matter of figurative interpretation?
This is not a matter of figurative interpretation; because jealousy is, in reality, a sense of honor. A person is jealous,Meaning: he feels a sense of honor that someone should share with him in this matter, or that someone should do this act, or something similar,What appears to me: that this is an explanation in the correct sense.
