[Machine] He used to say when this verse was recited to him, "If people knew the extent of Allah's forgiveness, mercy, and His overlooking their wrongdoings, their eyes would become overwhelmed with tears. And if people knew the extent of Allah's punishment, retribution, severity, and vengeance, they would never stop shedding tears, and food and drink would not benefit them."
أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ إِذَا تُلِيَ عَلَيْهِ هَذِهِ الْآيَةُ {وَإِنَّ رَبَّكَ لَذُو مَغْفِرَةٍ لِلنَّاسِ عَلَى ظُلْمِهِمْ} [الرعد 6] قَالَ «فَلَوْ يَعْلَمُ النَّاسُ قَدْرَ مَغْفِرَةِ اللَّهِ وَرَحْمَتِهِ وَتَجَاوُزِ اللَّهِ لَقَرَّتْ أَعْيُنُهُمْ وَلَوْ يَعْلَمُ النَّاسُ قَدْرَ عَذَابِ اللَّهِ وَنَكَالِ اللَّهِ وَبَأْسِ اللَّهِ وَنِقَمِ اللَّهِ مَا رَقَأَ لَهُمْ دَمْعٌ وَلَا انْتَفَعُوا بِطَعَامٍ وَلَا شَرَابٍ»
