Allah loves that His dispensations be taken as He loves that His obligations be observed

Explanation

The Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) reports that Allah loves that people should take the dispensations He made lawful, such as lightening the rulings and acts of worship and making them easier for the performers, due to some excuse, like shortening and combining the prayers during travel - as He loves that His obligations and duties be discharged. This is because Allah's command in terms of dispensations and obligations is the same.

Lessons

• The Hadīth shows Allah's mercy towards His servants and that He loves His lawful dispensations to be taken.
• It highlights the perfection of this Shariah and how it removes undue restrictions from the Muslims.
