Allah is described with forgiveness, yet He did not create a forgiveness in which people seek forgiveness; and Allah, Glorified and Exalted, is Wise, yet He did not create a wisdom by which people judge one another. Why, since Allah is Merciful, did He create mercy and distribute it among people?

The questioner : Yes, He created it.

The Shaykh : If you say no, you are foolish. If you say He created it, then there is wisdom in you, and there is also forgiveness:
Say to those who believe that they should forgive those who hope for the days of Allah. And if you pardon and forgive, then indeed Allah is Forgiving and Merciful. قل للذين آمنوا يغفروا للذين يرجون أيام الله ، وإن تعفوا وتصفحوا وتغفروا ، فإن الله غفور رحيم
Our forgiveness is created, without doubt.
