6 – ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Ṣāliḥ al-ʿAtakī narrated to me; al-Muṭṭalib ibn Ziyād narrated to us, from ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Zubayd al-Yāmī, who said:

“Not a single day dawns without proclaiming: ‘I am a new day, and I shall testify against you. O child of Adam, I will never pass by you again, so employ me in righteous deeds.’ Then, when evening falls, it says: ‘O Allah, do not send me back to the world ever again.’”
