٩ - عن أبي عبد الله (ع) قال: فيما أوحى الله إلى موسى (ع) أن: يا موسى، ما خَلقتُ خلقاً أحبّ اليّ من عبديَ المؤمن، وإني انمّا أبتَليه لما هو خَير له وأُعطيه لما هو خير له وأزوي عنه لما هو خير له، وأنا أعلمُ بما يصلح عليه عبدي؛ فليصبر على بلائي وليرضَ بقضائي وليشكُر نعمائي، أكتُبْه في الصدّيقين عندي إذا عمل برضائي وأطاع أمري
9. It has been narrated that Abu 'Abd Allah [a.s] said: Out of what Allah revealed to Musa (Prophet Moses) [a.s] is the following: O Musa! I have not created a creation more beloved to Me than My believing servant. For verily I try him with what is good for him, I bestow on him what is good for him and I remove from him what is good for him. For I know better what is more proper for My servant. Therefore, let him be patient over My trials, be pleased with My decrees and give thanks for My blessings. I shall record him amongst the truthful ones with Me when he acts according to My pleasure and obeys My command.
