Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · Traditions about Ar-Ridha (a.s.)
33 - وَبِهذَا الإِسنادِ قالَ: قالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُعَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ: مَثَلُ المُؤمِنِ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ كَمَثَلِ مَلَكٍ مُقَرَّبٍ، وَإِنَّ المؤمِنَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ أَعْظَمَ مِن ذلِكَ؛ وَلَيْسَ شَيءٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَى اللَّهِ مِن مُؤْمِنٍ تائِبٍ أَو مُؤْمِنةٍ تائِبَةٍ.
31-33 According to the same documentation, God’s Prophet (S) said, “The similitude of a believer near the Honorable the Exalted God is like that of the nearby-stationed angel. A believer has an even higher rank than that before God. Nothing is more loved by God than a repenting believing man or woman.”
