His statement: (For indeed, Allah accepted his face when he prayed) — is this to be taken at its apparent meaning?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : We said that
Allah accepted his face الله قبل وجهه
is to be taken at its apparent meaning. Should we not say that the intended meaning is mercy?

The Shaykh : There is no god but Allah! How long have we been teaching you? We say: leave aside figurative interpretation. Indeed, Allah accepted his face, but how did He do so? The "how" is unknown.
