حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ الْمَدَائِنِيُّ مَوْلَى بَنِي هَاشِمٍ [قَالَ: نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْمُسَيِّبِيُّ، قَالَ: نَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ هِشَامِ ] بْنِ عُرْوَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ:
إِنَّ مُوسَى قَالَ: يَا رَبِّ، أَخْبِرْنِي بِأَكْرَمِ خَلْقِكَ عَلَيْكَ، فَقَالَ: الَّذِي يُسْرِعُ إِلَى هَوَايَ إِسْرَاعَ النَّسْرِ إِلَى هَوَاهُ، وَالَّذِي يَكْلَفُ بِعِبَادِيَ الصَّالِحِينَ كَمَا يَكْلَفُ الصَّبِيُّ بِالنَّاسِ، وَالَّذِي يَغْضَبُ إِذَا انْتُهِكَتْ مَحَارِمِي غَضَبَ النَّمِرِ لِنَفْسِهِ، فَإِنَّ النَّمِرَ إِذَا غَضِبَ لَمْ يُبَالِ، أَقَلَّ النَّاسُ أَمْ كَثُرُوا

✧ Indeed Musa said: 'O Lord, tell me who is the most honorable of Your creation to You.' He said: 'The one who hastens to My desire as an eagle hastens to its desire, and the one who is devoted to My righteous servants as a child is devoted to people, and the one who becomes angry when My sacred limits are violated as a tiger is angry for itself, for when a tiger is angry it does not care whether people are few or many.'
