Sahih Muslim 2751a (Book 50, Hadith 17) #14036
The Mercy of Allah

SUMMARY: Allah's mercy is greater than His wrath.

Abu Huraira reported that Allah's Messenger said: When Allah created the creation as He was upon the Throne, He put down in His Book: Verily, My mercy predominates My wrath.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُغِيرَةُ، - يَعْنِي الْحِزَامِيَّ - عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ لَمَّا خَلَقَ اللَّهُ الْخَلْقَ كَتَبَ فِي كِتَابِهِ فَهُوَ عِنْدَهُ فَوْقَ الْعَرْشِ إِنَّ رَحْمَتِي تَغْلِبُ غَضَبِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith speaks of the mercy of Allah, which is greater than His wrath. It tells us that when Allah created the world, He wrote in His book that His mercy would always be greater than his wrath. This means that no matter what we do, if we turn to Him and ask for forgiveness, He will forgive us and show us mercy. We should never forget this and always remember to turn to Him in times of need.

This hadith also reminds us that everything happens according to the will of Allah and whatever He has written in His book will come true no matter what happens in our lives. We should have faith in Him and trust that whatever He has planned for us is for our own good even if it doesn't seem like it at first glance.
