Hadith 57
۞
Hadith.58 - When Allah (swt) spoke to Musa ibn Imran (as),
Musa (as) asked: "O’ Lord (azj), are You far from me that I should call to You, or are You near that I may converse with You?"
Allah (swt), Glorious and Exalted, revealed to him: "I am with the one who remembers Me. "
Musa (as) then said: "O’ Lord (azj), there are circumstances in which I hold You in such reverence that I would not mention You."
Allah (swt) said: "O’ Musa, remember Me in all circumstances."
58 - وَ لَمَّا نَاجَى اَللَّهُ مُوسَى بْنَ عِمْرَانَ [عَلَى نَبِيِّنَا وَ] عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ مُوسَى: يَا رَبِّ أَ بَعِيدٌ أَنْتَ مِنِّي فَأُنَادِيَكَ أَمْ قَرِيبٌ فَأُنَاجِيَكَ فَأَوْحَى اَللَّهُ جَلَّ جَلاَلُهُ إِلَيْهِ «أَنَا جَلِيسُ مَنْ ذَكَرَنِي » فَقَالَ مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَا رَبِّ إِنِّي أَكُونُ فِي أَحْوَالٍ أُجِلُّكَ أَنْ أَذْكُرَكَ فِيهَا فَقَالَ «يَا مُوسَى اُذْكُرْنِي عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ».
