Does the servant give precedence to the aspect of hope in his belief in his Lord?

The questioner : [Regarding] his belief in his Lord and giving precedence to the aspect of hope, from this one might understand that he gives precedence to the aspect of supplication, or the generality which includes supplication.

The Shaykh : I wish that the word "I think" here did not imply such a preference. I think you know this: the servant should be between fear and hope, without giving precedence to either.
