The Mercy of Allah

SUMMARY: Allah's mercy is greater than his anger.

Narrated Abu Huraira: The Prophet said, "When Allah had finished His creation, He wrote over his Throne: 'My Mercy preceded My Anger'.
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ، أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَمَّا قَضَى الْخَلْقَ كَتَبَ عِنْدَهُ فَوْقَ عَرْشِهِ إِنَّ رَحْمَتِي سَبَقَتْ غَضَبِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith, narrated by Abu Huraira, speaks of the mercy of Allah. It tells us that when Allah finished creating the world, He wrote over His throne that His mercy preceded His anger. This means that no matter what we do wrong in our lives, if we turn to Him and ask for forgiveness, He will be merciful and forgive us. We should always remember this and strive to live our lives in a way that pleases Him so we can receive His mercy.
