<b>Guidance from the Hadith:</b><br> 1) It is obligatory to avoid sins, for they incur the anger of Allah Almighty.<br> 2) When a believer, who glorifies his Lord, learns about the jealousy of Allah Almighty regarding His prohibitions, this prompts him not to transgress the limits and prohibitions set by his Lord.<br> 3) The Hadith establishes the attribute of jealousy for Allah Almighty, in a way that befits Him.<br> Note:<br> Ahl-us-Sunnah wa al-Jamā‘ah hold the belief that they should establish for Allah Almighty all the attributes that He has established for Himself in His Book or through His Prophet, in a manner that befits Him, Exalted be He. Imam Al-Shāfi‘i (may Allah have mercy upon him) said: “I believe in Allah and what was revealed from Allah, in accordance with the intent of Allah; and I believe in the Messenger of Allah and what was reported from the Messenger of Allah, in accordance with the intent of the Messenger of Allah (may Allah’s peace and blessings be upon him).” [Majmū‘ al-Fatāwa]
