Hadith 18
۞
31-18 According to the same documentation, God’s Prophet (S) said,
"Allah, Blessed and Exalted, says:
O son of Adam, you do not treat Me justly.
I draw near to you with blessings, while you draw near to Me with sins.
My goodness descends upon you, and your evil rises up to Me.
And yet, a noble angel comes to Me from you every day and night with an ugly deed.
O son of Adam, if you were to hear your description from anyone else, not knowing that it was about you, you would rush to despise him."
18 - وَبِهذَا الإِسنادِ قالَ
قالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُعَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ: يَقُولُ اللَّهُ تَبارَكَ وَتَعالى: يا ابْنِ آدَمَ ما تَنصِفُنِي أَتَحَبَّبُ إِلَيكَ بِالنِّعَمٍ وَتَتَمَقَّتُ إليَّ بِالمَعاصِي، خَيْرِي إِلَيكَ مُنْزَلٌ وَشَرُّكَ إِلَيَّ صاعِدٌ، وَلا يَزالٌ مَلَكٌ كَرِيمٌ يَأتِينِي عَنْكَ فِي كُلِّ يَوْمٍ وَلَيْلَةٍ بِعَمِلٍ قَبِيحٍ مِنْكَ، يا ابْنَ آدَمَ لَوْ سَمِعْتَ وَصفَكَ مِن غَيْرِكَ وَأَنْتَ لا تَعلَمُ مَنِ المَوْصُوفُ لَسارَعتَ إِلى مَقتِهِ.
