Arabic text

ابن أبي عمير عن معاوية بن عمار عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام قال: سمعته يقول: إن في السماء ملكين موكلين بالعباد في من تواضع لله رفعاه ومن تكبر وضعاه.

Translation

15.Ibn Abī ʿUmayr narrated from Muʿāwiyah ibn ʿAmmār, from Abū ʿAbdillāh (a) whom he heard saying, “Verily there are two angels in the sky who have been placed in charge of [observing] the servants, so whoever humbles himself before Allah is elevated by them and whoever is haughty is abased by them.”

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