Book of Belief

(13) Chapter: The statement of the Prophet (saws): “I know Allah Ta’ala better, than all of you do.”

Hadith 20

Narrated ‘Aisha:

Whenever Allah’s Messenger (صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِۦ وَسَلَّمَ) ordered the Muslims to do something, he used to order them deeds which were easy for them to do, (according to their strength and endurance). They said, “O Allah’s Messenger (صَلَّى ٱللَّٰهُ عَلَيْهِۦ وَسَلَّمَ)! We are not like you. Allah has forgiven your past and future sins.” So Allah’s Apostle became angry and it was apparent on his face. He said, “I am the most Allah fearing, and know Allah better than all of you do.”
