Explanation of al-Aqidah al-Wasitiyya – Lesson 36

Lesson 36:[AFFIRMING THAT ALLAH BECOMES JOYOUS, LAUGHS AND IS AMAZED]And like his saying ﷺ: 'Allah shows more joy at the repentance of His believing and penitent servant than any one of you when (he finds his lost) riding beast.' [Bukhari, Muslim]And like his saying ﷺ: 'Allah laughs at two men, both of whom kill each other, yet both enter Paradise.' [Bukhari, Muslim]And like his saying ﷺ: 'Our Lord is amazed at the despairing of His servants (at some harm) when His changing (his circumstances) is at hand. He looks at you when you are in a state of hardship and despair, and keeps laughing, knowing that your relief is close.'
