فِيمَا أَوْحَى اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَى دَاوُدَ ( عليه السلام ) يَا دَاوُدُ كَمَا أَنَّ أَقْرَبَ النَّاسِ مِنَ اللَّهِ الْمُتَوَاضِعُونَ كَذَلِكَ أَبْعَدُ النَّاسِ مِنَ اللَّهِ الْمُتَكَبِّرُونَ .


Translation

From him, from his father, from Abdullah Bin Al Qasim, from Amro Bin Abu Al Miqdam, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Among what Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Revealed unto Dawood<sup>as</sup>, was, ‘O Dawood<sup>as</sup>! The closest of the people to Allah<sup>azwj</sup> are the humble ones. Similar to that, the most remote of the people to Allah<sup>azwj</sup> are the arrogant ones’.
