Chapter on the Thirteenth Sunnah Affirming the Two Hands of Allah, Mighty and Majestic
This is the Prophet’s declaration, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, that Allah’s two hands are extended to those who sin by night so that they may repent by day, and to those who sin by day so that they may repent by night, until the sun rises from the west.
بَابُ السُّنَّةِ الثَّالِثَةَ عَشْرَةَ فِي إِثْبَاتِ يَدَيِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَهِيَ إِعْلَامُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ يَدَيِ اللَّهِ يُبْسَطَانِ لِمُسِيءِ اللَّيْلِ لِيَتُوبَ بِالنَّهَارِ , وَلِمُسِيءِ النَّهَارِ لِيَتُوبَ بِاللَّيْلِ حَتَّى تَطْلُعَ الشَّمْسُ مِنْ مَغْرِبِهَا
