Arabic text

وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «أَوْحَى اَللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى إِلَى مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ «مَا يَمْنَعُكَ مِنْ مُنَاجَاتِي» فَقَالَ يَا رَبِّ أُجِلُّكَ عَنِ اَلْمُنَاجَاةِ لِخُلُوفِ فَمِ اَلصَّائِمِ فَأَوْحَى اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِلَيْهِ «يَا مُوسَى لَخُلُوفُ فَمِ اَلصَّائِمِ أَطْيَبُ عِنْدِي مِنْ رِيحِ اَلْمِسْكِ».

Translation

"Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, revealed to Musa (a.s): 'What prevents you from conversing with Me?' He replied: 'O Lord (azj), I revere You too much to converse with You because of the odor of the fasting person's mouth.' Allah (swt), the Almighty, revealed to him: 'O Musa, the odor of the fasting person's mouth is more pleasant to Me than the scent of musk.'”
