We narrated it from the hadith of Muhammad bin Maslama Ibn Waddah, one of the people of Cordoba, may God have mercy on him. He said, “God said to the Children of Israel: We desired you for the Hereafter, but you did not desire, and We made you abstain from this world, but you did not abstain, and We feared you with Hell, so you did not fear, and We made you long for Paradise, so you did not long, and We were for you, so you did not.” Weep, give glad tidings to the fighters that God has a sword that never sleeps, and He is the abode of Hell.
