(No. 355) ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us—my father told me—ʿAbd al-Wahhāb narrated—from Saʿīd, from Qatādah—that the Prophet of Allah, Moses (peace be upon him), said: “My Lord, which thing that You have placed upon the earth is the scarcest?” He replied, “Justice is the scarcest thing I have placed upon the earth.”
٣٥٥ - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أبِي، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ أَنَّ نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ مُوسَى ﷺ قَالَ: «أَيْ رَبِّ، أَيُّ شَيْءٍ وَضَعْتَ فِي الْأَرْضِ أَقَلَّ؟» قَالَ: «الْعَدْلُ أَقَلُّ مَا وَضَعْتُ فِي الْأَرْضِ»
