Collected by Muslim, Tirmidhī, Ibn Mājah, Aḥmad, Ḥākim, Bayhaqī, Suyūṭī"O My servants, I have forbidden oppression for Myself and have made it forbidden amongst you, so do not oppress one another. O My servants, all of you are astray except for those I have guided, so seek guidance of Me and I shall guide you, O My servants, all of you are hungry except for those I have fed, so seek food of Me and I shall feed you. O My servants, all of you are naked except for those I have clothed, so seek clothing of Me and I shall clothe you."
"O My servants, you sin by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, so seek forgiveness of Me and I shall forgive you. O My servants, you will not attain harming Me so as to harm Me, and will not attain benefitting Me so as to benefit Me. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to be as pious as the most pious heart of any one man of you, that would not increase My dominion in anything. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to be as wicked as the most wicked heart of any one man of you, that would not decrease My dominion in anything. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to rise up in one place and make a request of Me, and were I to give everyone what he requested, that would not decrease what I have, any more that a needle decreases the sea if put into it. O My servants, it is but your deeds that I record for you and then recompense you for. So let him who finds good, praise Allah, and let him who finds other than that blame no one but himself."
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فِيمَا رَوَى عَنِ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «يَا عِبَادِي إِنِّي حَرَّمْتُ الظُّلْمَ عَلَى نَفْسِي، وَجَعَلْتُهُ بَيْنَكُمْ مُحَرَّمًا، فَلاَ تَظَالَمُوا۔ يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ ضَالٌّ إِلاَّ مَنْ هَدَيْتُهُ، فَاسْتَهْدُونِي أَهْدِكُمْ۔ يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ جَائِعٌ إِلاَّ مَنْ أَطْعَمْتُهُ، فَاسْتَطْعِمُونِي أُطْعِمْكُمْ۔ يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ عَارٍ إِلاَّ مَنْ كَسَوْتُهُ، فَاسْتَكْسُونِي أَكْسُكُمْ۔»
«يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ تُخْطِئُونَ بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَأَنَا أَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا فَاسْتَغْفِرُونِي أَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ۔ يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَبْلُغُوا ضَرِّي فَتَضُرُّونِي وَلَنْ تَبْلُغُوا نَفْعِي فَتَنْفَعُونِي۔ يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ كَانُوا عَلَى أَتْقَى قَلْبِ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُمْ، مَا زَادَ ذَلِكَ فِي مُلْكِي شَيْئًا۔ يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ كَانُوا عَلَى أَفْجَرِ قَلْبِ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ، مَا نَقَصَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ مُلْكِي شَيْئًا۔ يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ قَامُوا فِي صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ فَسَأَلُونِي فَأَعْطَيْتُ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ مَسْأَلَتَهُ، مَا نَقَصَ ذَلِكَ مِمَّا عِنْدِي إِلاَّ كَمَا يَنْقُصُ الْمِخْيَطُ إِذَا أُدْخِلَ الْبَحْرَ۔ يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّمَا هِيَ أَعْمَالُكُمْ أُحْصِيهَا لَكُمْ ثُمَّ أُوَفِّيكُمْ إِيَّاهَا، فَمَنْ وَجَدَ خَيْرًا فَلْيَحْمَدِ اللَّهَ وَمَنْ وَجَدَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ فَلاَ يَلُومَنَّ إِلاَّ نَفْسَهُ۔»
"Allah,Most High said: 'O My Slaves! All of you are astray except whom I guide, so ask Me for guidance and I shall guide you. All of you are poor except whom I enrich, so ask Me and I shall provide you. All of you are sinners except whom I have pardoned, so whoever among you knows that I am the One able to forgive, and seeks My forgiveness, I shall forgive him, without concern for Me (and it will not affect Me). If the first of you and the last of you, the living among you and the dead among you, the fresh among you and the dry among you were to gather together to help the heart with the most Taqwa among My slaves, that would not add a mosquito's wing to My sovereignty. If the first of you and the last of you, the living among you and the dead among you, the fresh among you and the dry among you were to gather together to help the worst heart of My slaves, that would not diminish a mosquito's wing to My sovereignty. I shall forgive him, without concern for Me (and it will not affect Me). If the first of you and the last of you, the living among you and the dead among you, the fresh among you and the dry among you were to gather together upon one plateau, and each person among them were to ask for his utmost desire, and I were to give each what he asked for, that would not diminish from My sovereignty, except as if one of you were to pass by an ocean and dip a needle into it and then remove it. That is because I am the Most Liberal without need, the Most Generous, doing as I will. I give by My speech and I punish by My speech, whenever I will something I only say: "Be" and it shall be.'"

[Machine] On the authority of Allah, the Exalted and Majestic, who said: "O my servants, you sin by night and by day, and I forgive all sins, so seek forgiveness from Me and I shall forgive you.

O my servants, it is but your deeds that I account for you, and then recompense you for. So let him who finds good praise Allāh, and let him who finds other than that blame no one except himself."

O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to be as pious as the most pious heart of any one man of you, that would not increase My dominion in anything. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to be as wicked as the most wicked heart of any one man of you, that would not decrease My dominion in anything. O My servants, were the first of you and the last of you, the human of you and the jinn of you to rise up in one place and make a request of Me, and were I to give everyone what he requested, that would not decrease what I have, any more that a needle decreases the sea if put into it. O My servants, it is but your deeds that I record for you and then recompense you for. So let him who finds good, praise Allah, and let him who finds other than that blame no one but himself." (Using translation from Muslim 2577a)
عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ عَنِ اللهِ ﷻ أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنِّي حَرَّمْتُ الظُّلْمَ عَلَى نَفْسِي وَجَعَلْتُهُ بَيْنَكُمْ مُحَرَّمًا فَلَا تَظَالَمُوا يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّكُمُ الَّذِينَ تُخْطِئُونَ بِاللَّيْلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وَأَنَا الَّذِي أَغْفِرُ الذُّنُوبَ وَلَا أُبَالِي فَاسْتَغْفِرُونِي أَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ جَائِعٌ إِلَّا مَنْ أَطْعَمْتُ فَاسْتَطْعِمُونِي أُطْعِمْكُمْ يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ عَارٍ إِلَّا مَنْ كَسَوْتُهُ فَاسْتَكْسُونِي أَكْسُكُمْ يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ كَانُوا عَلَى أَتْقَى قَلْبِ رَجُلٍ مِنْكُمْ لَمْ يَزِدْ ذَلِكَ فِي مُلْكِي شَيْئًا يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمْ كَانُوا عَلَى أَفْجَرِ قَلْبِ رَجُلٍ مِنْكُمْ لَمْ يَنْقُصْ ذَلِكَ مِنْ مُلْكِي شَيْئًا يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَنَّ أَوَّلَكُمْ وَآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجِنَّكُمُ اجْتَمَعُوا فِي صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ فَسَأَلُونِي ثُمَّ أَعْطَيْتُ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ مِنْهُمْ مَا سَأَلَ لَمْ يَنْقُصْ ذَلِكَ مِنْ مُلْكِي شَيْئًا إِلَّا كَمَا يَنْقُصُ الْبَحْرُ يُغْمَسُ فِيهِ الْمِخْيَطُ غَمْسَةً وَاحِدَةً يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّمَا هِيَ أَعْمَالُكُمْ أَحْفَظُهَا عَلَيْكُمْ فَمَنْ وَجَدَ خَيْرًا فَلْيَحْمَدِ اللهَ وَمَنْ وَجَدَ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ فَلَا يَلُومَنَّ إِلَّا نَفْسَهُ
"إِن الله ﷻ يَقُولُ: يَا عِبَادى كُلُّكُمْ ضَال إِلا مَنْ هَدَيتُ، وضَعِيَف إِلا مَن قَوَّيتُ، وفَقِير إِلا مَنْ أغْنَيتُ، فَسَلُونِى أعطِكُمْ، فَلَو أن أولكُمْ وآخِرَكُمْ، وَجِنكُمْ -وإنسَكُمْ، وَحَيَّكُمْ، وميِّتكُمْ، وَرَطبَكُمْ- ويابِسَكُمْ؛ اجْتَمَعُوا عَلَى قَلب أتقَى عَبْد مِنْ عِبَادِى، مَا زَادَ في مُلكى جَنَاح بَعُوضَة، وَلَوْ أن أولكُمْ وآخِرَكُمْ وَحَيكُمْ وميتكُمْ، وَرَطبَكُمْ وَيَابِسَكُم؛ اجْتَمَعُوا عَلَى قَلبِ أفْجَرِ عَبْدٍ هُوَ لِى ما نَقَصُوا مِنْ مُلكى جَنَاحَ بَعُوضَة، ذَلِكَ أنى وَاحِد، عَذابِى كَلام، ورحْمَتِى كَلام؛ فَمَنْ أيقَنَ بِقُدْرَتى عَلَى المَغْفِرَةِ لَمْ يَتَعَاظَمْ فِي نَفْسِى أنِّي أغْفِرُ ذُنُوبَهُ، وَإنْ كَثُرتْ".
"قَال اللهُ -تَبارَكَ وتَعَالى-: يَا عِبَادِي إنِّي حَرَّمتُ الظُّلمَ عَلَي نَفْسِي، وَجَعَلتُهُ مُحرَّمًا بَينَكُمْ، فَلَا تَظَّالمُوا، يَا عبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ ضَالٌ إلا مَنْ هَدَيتُه, فاسْتَهْدُونِي أَهْدِكُم، يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ جَائِعٌ إلا مَنْ أطعَمْتُه فَاسْتَطعِمونِي أَطعِمكمْ, يَا عِبَادِي كُلُّكُمْ عَارٍ إلا مَنْ كَسَوْتُه فَاسْتَكْسونِي أَكْسِكُمْ، يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ تُخطِئُون باللَّيلِ وَالنَّهَارِ وأَنَا أَغفِرُ
الذُّنُوبَ جَمِيعًا، فَاسْتَغْفِرُونِي أَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ، يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَبْلغُوا ضَرِّي فَتَضُرُّونِي, وَلَنْ تَبْلُغُوا نَفْعِي فَتَنْفَعُونِي، يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَن أَولَّكُمْ وآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجنَّكُمْ كانوا عَلَي أَتْقَي قَلْبِ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ مِنْكُم مَا زَادَ ذَلكَ فِي مُلْكِي شَيئًا، يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أَن أَوَّلَكُمْ وآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجنَّكُمْ كانُوا عَلَي أَفجَرِ قَلبِ رَجُلٍ وَاحِدٍ مِنكُمْ مَا نَقَصَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ مُلْكِي شَيئًا، يَا عِبَادِي لَوْ أن أوَّلَكُمْ وآخِرَكُمْ وَإِنْسَكُمْ وَجنَّكُمْ قَامُوا فِي صَعِيدٍ وَاحِدٍ (فَسَأَلُوني) فَأَعْطَيتُ كُلَّ إِنْسَانٍ مَسْأَلَتَه، مَا نَقَصَ ذَلِكَ مِمَّا عِنْدي إلا كَمَا يَنْقُصُ الْمِخْيطُ إِذَا أَدْخِلَ الْبَحْرَ، يَا عِبَادِي إِنَّما هِيَ أَعْمَالُكُمْ أُحْصِيهَا لَكُمْ، ثُمَّ أُوفِيكُمْ إِيَّاهَا، فَمَنْ وَجَدَ خَيرًا فَليَحْمَدِ اللهَ، وَمَنْ وَجَدَ غَيرَ ذَلِكَ فَلَا يَلُومَنَّ إِلَّا نَفْسَهُ".
