"لَوْلا عِبَاد لله رُكَّعٌ، وَصِبيةٌ رُضع، وَبَهائِمُ رُتَّع، لَصُبَّ عَلَيكمْ صبا، ثُمَّ رُضَّ رَضّا".

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah, ﷺ , said: "If it were not for the worshippers of Allah, the bowing of the knees, the suckling babies, and the grazing animals, punishment would pour down upon you abundantly, then it would be accepted with approval."  

الطبراني:١٩٠٧٩ – حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ النَّوْفَلِيُّ الْمَدِينِيُّ ومُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُزَيْقِ بْنِ جَامِعٍ الْمِصْرِيُّ قَالَا ثنا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ الْمُنْذِرِ الْحِزَامِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَعْدٍ الْمُؤَذِّنُ عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عُبَيْدَةَ الدُّؤَلِيُّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ قَالَ

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَوْلَا عَبَّادٌ لِلَّهِ رُكَّعٌ وَصِبْيَةٌ رُضَّعٌ وَبَهَائِمُ رُتَّعٌ لَصُبَّ عَلَيْكُمُ الْعَذَابُ صَبًّا ثُمَّ رَضًّ رَضًّا»

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "If it were not for the worshippers of Allah, the kneeling animals, the infants being breastfed, and the roaming animals, surely punishment would rain down upon you abundantly, and you would be left yearning for mercy."  

البيهقي:٦٣٩١ – أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو سَعْدٍ الْمَالِينِيُّ أنبأ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ بْنُ عَدِيٍّ ثنا عَبْدَانُ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَا ثنا هِشَامُ بْنُ عَمَّارٍ ثنا عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ سَعْدٍ يَعْنِي ابْنَ عَمَّارِ بْنِ سَعْدِ الْقَرَظِ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكُ بْنُ عُبَيْدَةَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ مُسَافِعٍ الدِّيلِيَّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ جَدِّهِ

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ لَوْلَا عِبَادُ اللهِ رُكَّعٌ وَصِبْيَةٌ رُضَّعٌ وَبَهَائِمٌ رُتَّعٌ لَصُبَّ عَلَيْكُمُ الْعَذَابُ صَبًّا ثُمَّ لَتَرْضُنَّ رِضًا
