A Muslim`s Dislike of some Rulings of Sharia while Believing in them

The Muslim who believes in the Law of Islam, the prescribed prayer and fasting sometimes says to himself, for example, : "I wish Allah hadn`t prescribed or revealed prayer and fasting." He says this out of laziness, fatigue, and the hardship involved in fasting." Such a person doesn`t mean to degrade Islam or fight it; rather, he loves comfort and avoids fatigue. In light of this, does the verse "That is because they hate the Revelation of God; so He has made their deeds fruitless."{Mohammad, 9} apply to this person? Is this considered greater Kufr that drives him out of the fold of Islam and makes him an apostate?

How to Understand Texts that Imply Anthropomorphism

The Holy Quran and the noble Sunnah contain words such as: "Hand of Allah," "My Eyes," "He established Himself (istawa)," "Allah schemes," "Allah mocks," etc., which some people might mistakenly understand in a way that is not befitting Allah Almighty. How should we deal with these words? Do we affirm a degree of resemblance and leave the 'how' to Allah (tafwid al-kayfiyyah)? Or do we completely delegate the meaning (tafwid al-ma'na bil-kulliyyah)? Or do we interpret them (ta'wil)? Is interpretation (ta'wil) considered distortion (tahrif)? Are all these approaches acceptable to Ahl al-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah? And why did Allah Almighty place them in His glorious book if they are a source of disagreement among Muslims?Words such as the Hand of Allah, established on the Throne, Allah (also) plotteth, Allah(Himself) doth mock them…etcetera were stated in the Noble Quran and the Prophetic Sunnah. Some people could be under the impression that they don`t befit Allah, the Almighty. Therefore, how should we deal with such words?
