حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمَسْعُودِيُّ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِي عُبَيْدَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَا يَنَامُ، وَلَا يَنْبَغِي لَهُ أَنْ يَنَامَ. يَخْفِضُ الْقِسْطَ وَيَرْفَعُهُ. حِجَابُهُ النَّارُ لَوْ كَشَفَهَا لَأَحْرَقَتْ سُبُحَاتُ وَجْهِهِ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَدْرَكَهُ بَصَرُهُ " ثُمَّ قَرَأَ أَبُو عُبَيْدَةَ {نُودِيَ أَنْ بُورِكَ مَنْ فِي النَّارِ، وَمَنْ حَوْلَهَا،، ، وَسُبْحَانَ اللهِ رَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ} (١) [النمل: ٨]، ،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: Allah Almighty does not sleep, nor does it befit Him to sleep. He lowers and raises the scale. His veil is fire. If He were to remove His veil, everything within the reach of His sight would burn. Then Abu Ubaidah recited this verse: "It was proclaimed that blessing has been bestowed on whoever is in the fire and whoever is around it, and Allah, the Lord of all the worlds, is free from every defect."
