حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عِيسَى بْنِ الطَّبَّاعِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَازِمٍ عَنْ وَاصِلٍ الْأَحْدَبِ عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ عَنْ شُرَيْحٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى يَا ابْنَ آدَمَ قُمْ إِلَيَّ أَمْشِ إِلَيْكَ وَامْشِ إِلَيَّ أُهَرْوِلْ إِلَيْكَ.

Ishaq ibn Isa ibn al-Tabba' narrated to us: Jarir - meaning Ibn Hazim - narrated to us from Wasil al-Ahdab, from Abu Wa'il, from Shurayh, who said: I heard a man among the Companions of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, say: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: God, Exalted, said: O son of Adam, if you rise towards Me, I will walk towards you; and if you walk towards Me, I will hasten towards you.
