قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لِعِيسَى ( عليه السلام ) يَا عِيسَى اذْكُرْنِي فِي نَفْسِكَ أَذْكُرْكَ فِي نَفْسِي وَ اذْكُرْنِي فِي مَلَئِكَ أَذْكُرْكَ فِي مَلَإٍ خَيْرٍ مِنْ مَلَإِ الْآدَمِيِّينَ يَا عِيسَى أَلِنْ لِي قَلْبَكَ وَ أَكْثِرْ ذِكْرِي فِي الْخَلَوَاتِ وَ اعْلَمْ أَنَّ سُرُورِي أَنْ تُبَصْبِصَ إِلَيَّ وَ كُنْ فِي ذَلِكَ حَيّاً وَ لَا تَكُنْ مَيِّتاً .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Ibn Fazzal, raising it, said, ‘Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Said to Isa<sup>as</sup>: “O Isa<sup>as</sup>! Mention Me<sup>azwj</sup> within yourself<sup>as</sup>, I<sup>azwj</sup> will Mention you<sup>as</sup> within Myself<sup>azwj</sup>, and mention Me<sup>azwj</sup> in your<sup>as</sup> gathering, I<sup>azwj</sup> shall Mention you<sup>as</sup> in a gathering better than the gathering of the human beings. O Isa<sup>as</sup>! Soften your<sup>as</sup> heart for Me<sup>azwj</sup> and frequent My<sup>azwj</sup> Mention in the isolation, and know that My<sup>azwj</sup> Gladness is that you<sup>as</sup> compliment to Me<sup>azwj</sup> and become lively during that and do not become (like) dead”’.
