Hadith 110

d its afflictions would have awoken the sleeping one, and preached the oppressor, and given insight to the scholar, and a rebuker had come on its behalf from Allah-azwj the Exalted, and explanations had come from him regarding it, and the insights. So, there is neither any worth for it in the Presence of Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, nor any weight, nor is there any creature, among what has reached us, more hateful to Him-azwj than it, nor has He-azwj Looked at it since its creation, and it had been presented to our Prophet-saww along with its keys and its treasures, not reducing by that any of his-saww share from the Hereafter. But he-saww refused to accept it due to his-saww knowledge that if Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic Hates a thing, so he-saww hates it (as well), and Belittles a thing, so he-saww belittles it, and that he-saww did not raise what Allah-azwj, Majestic is His-azwj Praise, had Placed it down, and that he‑saww did not amplify what Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic had Reduced. And if he-saww had not informed about its belittling in the Presence of Allah-azwj, except that Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic had Belittled it by Making its good as a reward for the obedient ones and Make its punishment as a punishment for the disobedient ones, it would suffice. And from what evidence’s for you upon the lowliness of the world is that Allah-azwj, Majestic is His-azwj Praise, Impedes it from His-azwj friend and His-azwj Loved ones presumptively and with choice, and He-azwj Extends it for His-azwj enemies as a temptation and a Test. He-azwj Honoured His-azwj Prophet-saww Muhammad-saww when He-azwj Afflicted hunger upon his‑saww belly, and Protected Musa-as the speaker, the whisperer, and the greenery of the vegetables could be seen from the linings of his-as belly from the weakness, and he-as had not asked Allah-azwj Mighty and Majestic, on the day he-as sheltered to the shade, except for food he-as could eat when he-as was exhausted from the hunger. And the report has come that he-saww said that Allah-azwj had Revealed to him-saww: ‘When you see the riches coming, then say, ‘A sin whose punishment is hastened’, and when you see the poverty coming, then say, ‘Welcome to the mark of the righteous ones’’. And owner of the (Holy) Spirit and the Word, Isa-as Bin Maryam-as when he-as said: ‘My-as sauce is the hunger, and my-as mark is the fear, and my-as clothing is the woollen, and my-as riding animal are my-as legs, and my-as lamp at night is the moon, and my-as warmth in the winter is east of the sun, and my-as fruits are what the earth grows for the cattle. I-as spend the night and there isn’t anything for me-as, and there isn’t anyone richer than me-as. And Suleyman-as Bin Dawood-as and what he-as had been Given from the kingdoms, when he‑as would eat the barley bread and feed the wheat to his-as mother-as, and when the night shielded, he-as would wear the coarse and shackle his-as hand to his-as neck and spend the night crying until morning, and he-as frequently said, ‘‘Lord! I have been unjust to myself, [27: 44], for if You-azwj do not Forgive me-as and have Mercy on me-as, I-as would be from the losers: ‘There is no god except Allah! Glorious are You, I was of the unjust ones!
