I am his _______

I am his _______ &

I am his _______

In the end of the hadith Allah concludes it by saying, “I do not hesitate about anything as much as I hesitate about ________

Answer

Al-Bukhaari (6502)

Whosoever shows enmity to someone devoted to Me, I shall be at war with him. My slave draws not near to Me with anything more loved by Me than the religious duties I have enjoined upon him, and My slave continues to draw near to Me with supererogatory works so that I shall love him.

When I love him I am his hearing with which he hears, his seeing with which he sees, his hand with which he strikes and his foot with which he walks. Were he to ask [something] of Me, I would surely give it to him, and were he to ask Me for refuge, I would surely grant him it. I do not hesitate about anything as much as I hesitate about [seizing] the soul of My faithful slave: he hates death and I hate hurting him*

The hesitation mentioned in the hadeeth is hesitation in taking the soul of the believer, out of mercy and compassion towards him, and out of love for him, because he hates death and his Lord, may He be exalted, hates hurting him
