Perhaps the meaning of the speaker was that in the Holy Qur’ a n the word anger has been used with reference to God. In contrast, he desired to convey that the Ved a s is free from any affirmation that God be- comes angry. But this is his mistake.

All that is meant is that, on account of His Holiness, God possesses an at- tribute which resembles wrath and that attribute demands that a disobedient one who persists in his rebellion should be chastised. God also possesses another attribute which resembles love and that demands that an obedient one should be rewarded for his obedience. The first at- tribute has been named wrath for the purpose of illustration, and the second one has been termed love. But 93 al-Najm, 53:9-10 [Publisher]
