5. Ali has narrated from his father from al-Nawfaliy from al-Sakuniy who has narrated the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that the Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, ‘Allah has an angel whose legs are on the lowest earth. The length of his leg is a distance of five hundred years’ journey and his head is in the highest sky with a length of one thousand years’ journey. He says, “O Lord, You are free of all defects, O Lord, You are free of all defects, as ever You have been and how great You are!” He (the Messenger of Allah) then said, ‘Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, sends revelation to him saying, “One who swears falsely by My name does not know this fact.’””
5- عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) إِنَّ للهِ مَلَكاً رِجْلاهُ فِي الأرْضِ السُّفْلَى مَسِيرَةَ خَمْسِمِائَةِ عَامٍ وَرَأْسُهُ فِي السَّمَاءِ الْعُلْيَا مَسِيرَةَ أَلْفِ سَنَةٍ يَقُولُ سُبْحَانَكَ سُبْحَانَكَ حَيْثُ كُنْتَ فَمَا أَعْظَمَكَ قَالَ فَيُوحِي اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلَيْهِ مَا يَعْلَمُ ذَلِكَ مَنْ يَحْلِفُ بِي كَاذِباً.
