419.
Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: I heard Messenger of Allah (PBUH) saying,
"When
Allah created the creatures, He wrote in the Book, which is with Him over His Throne: `Verily, My Mercy prevailed
over My Wrath"
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Another narration is: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"(Allah wrote) `My Mercy dominated My Wrath".
Still another narration is: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"(Allah wrote) `My Mercy surpasses My Wrath".
Commentary:
Imam Al-Khattabi states that here the word
"Kitab''
(translated here as `Book') means the decision of
Almighty Allah which He has already made, an instance of which is the following Verse of the Noble Qur'an:
"Allah has decreed: `Verily, it is I and My Messengers who shall be the victorious".
(58:21).
In this Ayah the Arabic word
"Kataba''
is used in the sense of "Qada' (decided);'' or the word
"Kataba''
signifies
"Lauh Mahfooz'' on which He has recorded everything. Almighty Allah is on the 'Arsh' (the Throne of Allah) and
this Book is with Him. (Fath Al-Bari, Kitab At-Tauhid, Bab: Wa kana Arshuhu `alal-Ma'.)

Abu Hurairah (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"Allah has divided
mercy into one hundred parts; and He retained with Him ninety-nine parts, and sent down to earth one part. Through
this one part creatures deal with one another with compassion, so much so that an animal lifts its hoof over its young
lest it should hurt it".
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim]
Another narration is: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "
Allah has one hundred mercies, out of which He has sent
down only one for jinn, mankind, animals and insects, through which they love one another and have compassion
for one another; and through it, wild animals care for their young. Allah has retained ninety-nine mercies to deal
kindly with His slaves on the Day of Resurrection.''
[Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
Another narration in Muslim is reported: by Salman Al-Farisi: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"Allah has hundred
mercies, out of which one mercy is used by his creation for mutual love and affection. Ninety-nine mercies are kept
for the Day of Resurrection.''
Another narration is: Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said,
"Allah created one hundred units of mercy on the Day He
created the heavens and the earth. Each one of them can contain all that is between the heaven and the earth. Of
them, he put one on earth, through which a mother has compassion for her children and animals and birds have
compassion for one another. On the Day of Resurrection, He will perfect and complete His Mercy". (That is He will
use all the hundred units of mercy for his slaves on that Day).
Commentary:
1. We learn from this Hadith that kind and compassionate treatment is liked by Allah and is in fact His Blessing and
Benevolence. This is the reason He has given a part of it to His creatures, and a person who is so hard-hearted, that
he is not even aware of it has a defect which is extremely displeasing to Allah. Moreover, it is a sign that such a
person is deprived of Divine blessing and mercy.
2. On the Day of Resurrection, Almighty Allah will bestow upon the believers hundred mercies. This news has great
hopes and joy for His slaves.
