أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ عَنْ عَوْفٍ عَنْ عَبَّاسٍ الْعَمِّيِّ قَالَ

بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ دَاوُدَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ كَانَ يَقُولُ فِي دُعَائِهِ «سُبْحَانَكَ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْتَ رَبِّي تَعَالَيْتَ فَوْقَ عَرْشِكَ وَجَعَلْتَ خَشْيَتَكَ عَلَى مَنْ فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَالْأَرْضِ فَأَقْرَبُ خَلْقِكَ مِنْكَ مَنْزِلَةً أَشَدُّهُمْ لَكَ خَشْيَةً وَمَا عِلْمُ مَنْ لَمْ يَخْشَكَ؟ وَمَا حِكْمَةُ مَنْ لَمْ يُطِعْ أَمْرَكَ؟»

✧ It has reached me that Dawud the Prophet ﷺ used to say in his supplication: "Glory be to You, O Allah, You are my Lord, exalted above Your Throne, and You have placed fear of You upon those in the heavens and the earth. The closest of Your creation to You in station is the one most fearful of You. What knowledge does one have who does not fear You? And what wisdom does one have who does not obey Your command?"
