Jami at-Tirmidhi 2241 (Book 33, Hadith 84) #27874
The Blindness of Allah

SUMMARY: The Prophet (s.a.w) was asked about the Dajjal and he responded by saying that Allah is not blind in one eye, but He is blind in one eye, His right eye being like a floating grape.

'Ibn 'Umar narrated that the Prophet(s.a.w) was asked about the Dajjal, so he said: "Lo! Indeed your Lord is not blind in one eye, and indeed he is blind in one eye; his right eye is as if it is a floating grape".
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى الصَّنْعَانِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ الدَّجَّالِ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ أَلاَ إِنَّ رَبَّكُمْ لَيْسَ بِأَعْوَرَ أَلاَ وَإِنَّهُ أَعْوَرُ عَيْنُهُ الْيُمْنَى كَأَنَّهَا عِنَبَةٌ طَافِيَةٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ سَعْدٍ وَحُذَيْفَةَ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَسْمَاءَ وَجَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَبِي بَكْرَةَ وَعَائِشَةَ وَأَنَسٍ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ وَالْفَلَتَانِ بْنِ عَاصِمٍ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى هَذَا حَدِيثٌ صَحِيحٌ غَرِيبٌ مِنْ حَدِيثِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ

EXPLANATIONS:
In this hadith, the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) was asked about the Dajjal and he responded by saying that Allah is not blind in one eye, but He is blind in one eye, His right eye being like a floating grape. This hadith teaches us that although we may think of Allah as all-seeing and all-knowing, He has chosen to be partially blind when it comes to certain matters such as forgiving those who repent for their sins or punishing those who do wrong deeds without mercy or justice. It also teaches us that although we may think of ourselves as powerful and wise beings with perfect vision, we are still limited compared to the power and wisdom of Allah which surpasses our own understanding. Furthermore, this hadith reminds us to always seek guidance from Him when making decisions since only He knows what is best for us even if it does not seem so at first glance.
