Arabic text

حدثنا الحسين بن سعيد قال حدثنا محمد بن أبي عمير عن محمد بن حمران عن زرارة قال: سمعت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام يقول: ما من أحد الا ومعه ملكان يكتبان ما يلفظه ثم يرفعان ذلك إلى ملكين فوقهما فيثبتان ما كان من خير وشر ويلقيان ما سوى ذلك.

Translation

1.Al-Ḥusayn ibn Saʿīd narrated to us, “Muḥammad ibn Abī ʿUmayr narrated to us from Muḥammad ibn Ḥumrān, from Zurārah who said, “I heard Abā ʿAbdillāh (a) say, ‘There is no person but that with him are two angels who write whatever he utters, then they send that up to two [other] angels above them who record what was good or evil from it, and cast aside anything other than that.’”

Translation: Shaykh Tahir Ridha Jaffer — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
