أَوْحَى اللَّهُ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى إِلَى مُوسَى بْنِ عِمْرَانَ ع أَ تَدْرِي لِمَ اصْطَفَيْتُكَ بِكَلَامِي دُونَ خَلْقِي قَالَ مُوسَى لَا يَا رَبِّ قَالَ يَا مُوسَى إِنِّي قَلَّبْتُ عِبَادِي ظَهْراً وَ بَطْناً فَلَمْ أَجِدْ فِيهِمْ أَحَداً أَذَلَّ نَفْساً لِي مِنْكَ يَا مُوسَى إِنَّكَ إِذَا صَلَّيْتَ وَضَعْتَ خَدَّيْكَ عَلَى التُّرَابِ

Hadith.975 - Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) said: "Allah (swt), Blessed and Exalted, revealed to Musa (as), son of Imran (as): 'Do you know why I have chosen you to speak to Me over all of My creation?' Musa (as) replied: 'No, my Lord (azj).' Allah (swt) said: 'O’ Musa (as), I searched My servants thoroughly and did not find anyone who humbled themselves before Me more than you. When you pray, you place your cheeks on the ground.'"
