Hadith 7

re in grief. O Musa-as! Order My-azwj servants to supplicate to Me-azwj in whatever situation they may be in after having accepted that I-azwj am indeed the Most Merciful of the merciful ones, the Answerer to the restless, and Remover of the evil, and the Changer of the eras, and the Giver of comfort, Thankful for a little, and Rewarding a great deal, and Enricher of the poor, and I-azwj am the Eternally Mighty and Powerful. So the one who comes to you-as and joined up with you-as from the sinful ones, so say: ‘Welcome to the courtyard of the Lord-azwj of the Worlds’, and seek Forgiveness for them, and be kind to them like one of other, and do not dominate them by what I-azwj have Given to you-as of the preference over them, and tell them to ask from Me-azwj from (and) My-azwj Grace, and My-azwj Mercy, for no one else is the owner of these, and I-azwj am with the Mighty Grace. Beatitude be to you-as, O Musa-as! Be a cave for the erroneous, and sit with the restless, and a seeker of Forgiveness among the sinful ones. You-as are from Me-azwj at the status of the Pleasure, so supplicate to Me-azwj with the pure heart, and the truthful tongue, and be as I-azwj have Commanded you-as to be. Be obedient to My-azwj Command and do not dominate over My-azwj servants by what is not begun from you-as. And come nearer to Me-azwj, for I-azwj am very near to you-as, for I-azwj will never Ask you-as what injures you-as by its weight nor to carry it (burden). But rather, I-azwj Ask you-as that you-as should supplicate to Me-azwj so I-azwj will Answer you-as, and that Ask from Me-azwj so I-azwj shall Give it to you-as, and that to come near to Me-azwj by what you-as have taken from Me-azwj of its interpretation, and to Me-azwj is the completion of its Revelation. O Musa-as! Look towards the earth, for very soon it shall be your-as grave, and raise your-as eyes towards the sky for it is above you-as and in it are great Angels, and weep upon yourself-as for as long as you-as are in the world, and fear the perishable and the destruction, and do not be deceived by the adornments of the world and its flowers, and do not be pleased with the injustice, and do not become an unjust one for I-azwj Hold the oppressor to Account until I-azwj Get justice from him for the oppressed one. O Musa-as! The good deeds are Rewarded tenfold but there is single punishment for a sin even one is so severe. Do not Associate (anyone) with Me-azwj, it is not Permissible for you that you‑as should Associate with Me-azwj. Come nearer and be steadfast, and supplicate like the supplication of the greedy one greedy for what is in My-azwj Possession, and regretful over what he has sent by what his hands (had earned) before. Just as the blackness of the night obliterates the day, and similarly the sins obliterate the good deeds, and the darkness of the night comes over the whiteness of the day, and similarly the sins come over the outstanding sins and blacken them (further)’’.
