"They didn't become angry for My Anger"




Ibn Abi ad-Dunya reported that Allah revealed to Yusha:

إني مهلك من قومك أربعين ألفا من خيارهم و ستين ألفا من شرارهم، فقال: يا رب هؤلاء الأشرار فما بال الأخيار؟ قال إنهم لم يغضبوا لغضبي وآكلوهم و شاربوهم



ENGLISH:

"I will destroy 40,000 of the best of your people and 60,000 of their worst." He asked: "My Lord, I can understand the worst of them being destroyed. Why destroy the best of them?" He Said: "They didn't become angry for My Anger, and they would give the worst ones food and drink."

NEDERLANDS:

"Ik zal 40.000 rechtgeschapenen uit jouw mensen vernietigen en 60.000 verdorvenen". Hij vroeg: "O mijn Heer, ik kan begrijpen waarom U de verdorvenen onder hen vernietigt, maar waarom vernietigt U de rechtgeshapenen?" Allaah antwoordde: "Zij toonden geen woede omwille van Mij en zij zouden de verdorvenen te eten en te drinken geven!"

["Al-Jawaab Al-Kaafi" – Ibn Al-Qayyim].
