Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Who interpreted the saying of Allah the Exalted: meaning without reckoning, is this correct? From His saying: [Az-Zumar 39:10]
The Shaykh : The patient one, by original nature, is not subject to reckoning; there is no need to say that patience is not reckoned upon a person at all, because it is an act of obedience.
The questioner : That it be expiation for sins.
The Shaykh : Yes, meaning that patience becomes expiation for sins?
The questioner : Yes
The Shaykh : It is not the apparent meaning. The apparent meaning is that what comes to mind from the wording is that the reward for patience is not like the others, limited by a number. Yes.
