Moses said to his Lord, “My Lord, you have created Adam with your power, and breathed into him the spirit, and made the angels prostrate for him, and entered him into Paradise, and you accepted his repentance. How could he thank you in return for all these favors?” Allah (SWT) told him, “Oh Moses, it was su cient from Adam that he said, “Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds.” Moses asked, “Oh my Lord, if a servant says, ‘Oh Lord,’ while bowing down in worship, what do you tell him?” Allah (SWT) said, “I tell him, ‘I am here, Oh Servant.’” Moses asked, “And if he says it while prostrating?” Allah (SWT) said, “I say, ‘I am here, Oh Servant.’” Moses asked, “And if he says it while being a sinner?” Allah said, “I tell him, Here I am. Here I am. Here I am.” Indeed Allah, the Most High said to Moses, son of Imran (A), about our Prophet Muhammad (SAW), while receiving the Torah. Moses said to his Lord, “Oh my Lord, I see that it is written in the Torah, that there will be a nation, if a morsel is struck in their stomach, you forgive their sins, because they start their food with ‘Bismillah,’ and they end it with ‘Alhamdulillah.’ Oh Allah, make it my nation, my Lord.” Allah (SWT) said to Moses, “Oh Moses, it is the nation of Muhammad (SAW).” Moses said to his Lord, “Oh my Lord, I see that it is written in the tablets, that there will be a nation, if one of them is about to commit a sin, but did not commit it and left it by the fear of Allah (SWT), You write it down for him as a good deed. Make it my nation, oh my Lord.” Allah (SWT) said to him, “Oh Moses, it is the nation of Muhammad (SAW).” Moses said “Oh Lord, I see that it is written in the tablets that there will be a nation, if one of them is about to do a good deed, but did not make it, it is written down for him as a good deed. And if he does it, it is written down for him as 10 good deeds, up to 700 times. Make it my nation, oh my Lord.” Allah said to him, “Oh Moses, it is the nation of Muhammad (SAW).” So Moses said, “Oh my Lord, make me from the nation of Muhammad (SAW).
