Arabic text

الحسن بن علي (الخزاز) (الوشاء) عن أبي الحسن عليه السلام قال: سمعته يقول: إن أيوب النبي عليه السلام قال: يا رب ما سألتك شيئا من الدنيا قط وداخلني (وداخله) شئ فأقبلت إليه سحابة حتى نادته: يا أيوب من وفقك لذلك؟ قال: أنت يا رب.

Translation

18.Al-Ḥasan ibn ʿAlī al-Khazzāz [al-Washshāʾ] narrated from Abū al- Ḥasan (a) whom he heard saying, “Verily Prophet Ayyūb (a) said, ‘O Lord, I have never asked You for anything of this world, ever.’ And an inkling of self-admiration entered his heart. Then a cloud approached him and called out to him, ‘O Ayyūb, who enabled you to do this?’ [Thus he realised the mistake, and turning to his Lord] he said, ‘You, O Lord!’”

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