Question:
Is it correct to say that creation has rights over Allah?
Answer:
Only in the terms the Prophet (upon him blessings and peace) said: “Do you all know what right Allah Most High has over His servants? The right that they should worship Him and not ascribe anything to Him. And do you know what right they have over Him if they do that? The right that He not punish them” al-Tirmidhi (hasan sahih); and with the understanding spelled out in the Qur’an and Sunni doctrine that Allah Most High is not
obliged to do or not to do anything.
