Mercy said to precede His wrath, but the picture Quran protays is wrath preceding mercy by a long shot. It's only "believers + obedient + not disobedient + no desire of this world + not being astray" that makes you recepient of his mercy if you disobey God, you will be in hell if you desire this world, you will be in hell if you disbelief in faith, you will be in hell if you are astray, you will be in hell I don't see how his mercy is preceding his wrath. Can anyone answer, this is important. We follow Ahlul Bayt (as), so apparently Shias should be able to answer questions like this.
