Meaning of raza and anger of Allah Ta’ala

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: When we say Allah ki Raza and Allah ka Ghussa what does that mean? I read that Allah doesn’t not experience emotions like humans so when we say of a quality of Allah that resembles humans, we take the end result as it’s meaning.

For example Mercy of Allah means Allah’s Favor. So please explain Raza and Ghussa in this context.

Bismillaah

A: Receiving the raza of Allah Ta’ala means that Allah Ta’ala will bless the person.

Receiving the anger of Allah Ta’ala means that Allah Ta’ala will deprive the person of His grace or Allah Ta’ala will punish him.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
