9 – al-Ḥusayn narrated to us; he said: ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us; he said: al-Mufaḍḍal ibn Ghassān informed us; he said: ʿUmar ibn al-Sakan narrated to us, from Sulaymān ibn al-Mughīrah, who said:

“It was among what Allah revealed to David: ‘O David, you will never meet Me with a deed that pleases Me more, or that lightens your burden more, than being content with My decree. Nor will you ever meet Me with a deed weightier upon your burden, or that provokes My anger against you more, than batar (arrogant exultation). So beware, O David, of batar.’”
