    عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي يَحْيَى الْوَاسِطِيِّ عَنْ عَجْلَانَ أَبِي صَالِحٍ قَالَ دَخَلَ رَجُلٌ عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) فَقَالَ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ هَذِهِ قُبَّةُ آدَمَ (عليه السلام) قَالَ نَعَمْ وَ لِلَّهِ قِبَابٌ كَثِيرَةٌ أَلَا إِنَّ خَلْفَ مَغْرِبِكُمْ هَذَا تِسْعَةٌ وَ ثَلَاثُونَ مَغْرِباً أَرْضاً بَيْضَاءَ مَمْلُوَّةً خَلْقاً يَسْتَضِيئُونَ بِنُورِهِ لَمْ يَعْصُوا اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ طَرْفَةَ عَيْنٍ مَا يَدْرُونَ خُلِقَ آدَمُ أَمْ لَمْ يُخْلَقْ يَبْرَءُونَ مِنْ فُلَانٍ وَ فُلَانٍ.

    301. From him, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Abu Yahya Al-Wasity, from Ajlaan Abu Salih who said: A man came up to Abu Abdullah (asws), so he said to him (asws), ‘May I be sacrificed for you (asws). This here (the sky) is the dome of Adam (as)?’ He (asws) said: ‘Yes. By Allah (azwj), there are numerous domes. Indeed! Behind this West of yours are thirty-nine (other) in the West, white lands filled with creatures illuminated by its light. They have never disobeyed Allah (azwj) even for the blink of an eye. These creatures are not aware of the creation of Adam (as), but they are distancing themselves (Tabarra) from so and so and so and so (Abu Bakr and Umar)’.

    302. Ali Bin Muhammad, from Salih Bin Abu Hammaad, from Yahya Bin Al-Mubarak, from Abdullah Bin Jabalat, from Is’haq Bin Ammaar, who said: Abu Abdullah (asws) has said: ‘The one who repairs his owns shoes, and stitches his own clothes, and carries his own commodities is free from the arrogance’.

    عَنْهُ عَنْ صَالِحٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أُورَمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ كُنْتُ أَنَا وَ الْقَاسِمُ شَرِيكِي وَ نَجْمُ بْنُ حَطِيمٍ وَ صَالِحُ بْنُ سَهْلٍ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَتَنَاظَرْنَا فِي الرُّبُوبِيَّةِ قَالَ فَقَالَ بَعْضُنَا لِبَعْضٍ مَا تَصْنَعُونَ بِهَذَا نَحْنُ بِالْقُرْبِ مِنْهُ وَ لَيْسَ مِنَّا فِي تَقِيَّةٍ قُومُوا بِنَا إِلَيْهِ قَالَ فَقُمْنَا فَوَ اللَّهِ مَا بَلَغْنَا الْبَابَ إِلَّا وَ قَدْ خَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا بِلَا حِذَاءٍ وَ لَا رِدَاءٍ قَدْ قَامَ كُلُّ شَعْرَةٍ مِنْ رَأْسِهِ مِنْهُ وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ لَا لَا يَا مُفَضَّلُ وَ يَا قَاسِمُ وَ يَا نَجْمُ لَا لَا بَلْ عِبَادٌ مُكْرَمُونَ لَا يَسْبِقُونَهُ بِالْقَوْلِ وَ هُمْ بِأَمْرِهِ يَعْمَلُونَ.

    303. From him, from Salih, from Muhammad Bin Awramat, from Ibn Sinan, from Al-Mufazzal Bin Umar who said: I and Al-Qasim Shureyki, and Najm Bin Hateem, and Salih Bin Sahl were at Al-Medina. So we were debating regarding the Lordship (Al-Rububiyya). So some of us said to the others, ‘What are we doing with this when we are so near to him (asws), and there is none from us who is in dissimulation. Let us all go to him (asws)’. So we went. By Allah (azwj) we had not reached the door but he (asws) had come out towards us without shoes or gown, and all the hair on his (asws) head was standing straight, and he (asws) was saying: ‘No! No! O Mufazzal, and O Qasim, and O Najm. No! No! But they (asws) are honourable servants who do not precede Him (azwj) by the speech, and they (asws) act in accordance with His (azwj) Commands’.

    305. From him, from Salih, from Al-Washa’, from Karraam, from Abdullah Bin Talha who said: I asked Abu Abdullah (asws) about the lizard, so he (asws) said: ‘Filthy, and it is a metamorphosed (creature), all of them. So if you were to kill it, wash yourself (Ghusl)’. My (asws) father was seated in Al-Hijr, and with him (asws) was a man to whom he (asws) was narrating. So a lizard started ululating with its tongue. So my (asws) father said to the man: ‘Do you know what this lizard is saying?’ He said, ‘I have no knowledge of what it is saying’. He (asws) said: ‘It is saying that if you mention Usman by insults, I will insult Ali (asws) until he goes from there’. He (asws) said: ‘And my (asws) father (asws) said: ‘There is none from the Clan of Umayya who dies, but he gets metamorphosed as a lizard. Abdul Malik Bin Marwaan, when death descended upon him, was metamorphosed into a lizard in front of the children who were in his presence. So when he was lost, that was a great (problem) for them as they did not know what to do. Then they met in a gathering, and decided to take a trunk and make it to look like a man. So they did that and clothed that with a coat of iron armour. Then they wrapped it in the shroud. So no one from the people knew about it except for myself (asws) and his children’.

    308. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al-Hassan Bin Mahboub, from Muqatil Bin Suleyman who said: I asked Abu Abdullah (asws), ‘What was the length of Adam (as) when he (as) descended to the earth, and what was the length of Hawwa (as)?’ He (asws) said: ‘We (asws) found in the Book of Ali (asws) Bin Abu Talib (asws) that when Allah (azwj) Made Adam (as) and his (as) wife Hawwa (as) to the earth, his (as) legs were in its twin part of Al-Safa (Al-Marwa), and his (as) head was under the horizon of the sky, and he (as) complained to Allah (azwj) from the difficulty caused by the heat of the sun. So Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Revealed unto Jibraeel (as) that Adam (as) had complained from the difficulty caused from the heat of the Sun. So he compressed him (as) with a compression and his (as) length became of seventy cubits, and he compressed Hawwa (as) with a compression, so her (as) length became of thirty five cubits’.

    309. From him, from Ibn Mahboub, from Abu Ayyub, from Al-Haris Bin Al-Mugheira who said: I asked Abu Abdullah (asws) about a man whose father had been made a captive in the era of Ignorance, so he never knew that he was a son whose father was made a captive in the era of ignorance until after he had been born a slave in Al-Islam and had been freed’. So he (asws) said: ‘His lineage is to his enslaved father in Al-Islam, then he would be counted from the tribe which his father was enslaved in, that he was known to be from them, and he will inherit from them and they will inherit from him’.

    310. Ibn Mahboub, from Abu Ayyub, from Abdul Momin Al-Ansary, who has narrated: Abu Ja’far (asws) having said that: ‘Allah (azwj) has Granted three characteristics to the Believer – the honour in the world and the Hereafter, and the success in the world and the Hereafter, and the prestige in front of the unjust ones’.

    ابْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) يَقُولُ ثَلَاثٌ هُنَّ فَخْرُ الْمُؤْمِنِ وَ زَيْنُهُ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَ الْآخِرَةِ الصَّلَاةُ فِي آخِرِ اللَّيْلِ وَ يَأْسُهُ مِمَّا فِي أَيْدِي النَّاسِ وَ وَلَايَتُهُ الْإِمَامَ مِنْ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ (عليهم السلام) قَالَ وَ ثَلَاثَةٌ هُمْ شِرَارُ الْخَلْقِ ابْتُلِيَ بِهِمْ خِيَارُ الْخَلْقِ أَبُو سُفْيَانَ أَحَدُهُمْ قَاتَلَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) وَ عَادَاهُ وَ مُعَاوِيَةُ قَاتَلَ عَلِيّاً (عليه السلام) وَ عَادَاهُ وَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ قَاتَلَ الْحُسَيْنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ (عليه السلام) وَ عَادَاهُ حَتَّى قَتَلَهُ.

    311. Ibn Mahboub, from Abdullah Bin Sinan who said: I heard Abu Abdullah (asws) saying; ‘Three things are a matter of pride for the Believer and an adornment of him in the world and the Hereafter – The Prayer during the last part of the night, and his dejection from what is in the hands of the people, and his Wilayah of the Imam (asws) from the Progeny (asws) of Muhammad (saww). And the three who are the most evil of the creatures by whom the people were plagued, are Abu Sufyan who fought against the Rasool Allah (saww) during his era and was inimical to him (saww), and Muawiya fought against Ali (asws) and was inimical to him (asws), and Yazeed Bin Muawiya, may Allah (azwj) Curse him (la), fought against Al-Husayn Bin Ali (asws), and was inimical to him (asws) until he (la) killed him (asws)’.

    312. Ibn Mahboub, from Malik Bin Atiyya, from Abu Hamza Al-Thumaly, who has narrated: Ali Bin Al-Husayn (asws) has said: ‘There is no nobility for the Qureysh, nor for the Arabs except by humbleness, and there is no prestige except by piety, and there are no deeds except by the intention, and there is no worship except by the understanding. Indeed! The most hateful of the people to Allah (azwj) is the one who emulates the Sunnah of an Imam (asws) but does not emulate him (asws) in his deeds’.

So he (la) sent for a man from Qureysh who came to him. So Yazeed (la) said to him, ‘Do you accept that you are my (la) slave, and if I (la) wish I (la) can sell you, and if I (la) wish I (la) can promote you?’ So the man said to him (la), ‘You (la) are no more prestigious than me among the Qureysh in nobility, nor was your (la) father more preferable than my father during the era of ignorance and Al-Islam, and neither are you (la) more preferable than me in the Religion, nor better than me. So how can I accept what you (la) are asking of me?’ So Yazeed (la) said to him, ‘By Allah (azwj)! If you do not accept me (la), I (la) shall kill you’. So the man said to him (la), ‘Your (la) killing me would not be greater than your (la) killing of Al-Husayn Bin Ali (asws) the son (asws) of the Rasool Allah (saww)’. So he (la) ordered that he be killed, may Allah Curse him (la)’. Then he (la) sent for Ali (asws) Bin Al-Husayn (asws). So he (la) said to him (asws) similar to what he (la) had said to the Qureyshi. Ali (asws) Bin Al-Husayn (asws) said to him (la): ‘Do you (la) see that if I (asws) do not accept you (la), you (la) kill me (asws) just as you (la) killed the man yesterday?’ Yazeed (la), may Allah (azwj) Curse him (la) said to him (asws), ‘Yes’. So Ali (asws) Bin Al-Husayn (asws) said to him (la): ‘I (asws) have accepted to you (la) with what you (la) asked. I (asws) am a humble slave (of Allah (azwj)), so if you (la) wish captivate me (asws) or if you (la) wish, release me’. So Yazeed (la) may Allah (azwj) Curse him (la) said to him (asws), ‘It is of a higher level (referring to the one whom he (la) had killed the day before) even if I (kill) or spare your (asws) blood it would not reduce your (asws) nobility’.

Then he (asws) said: ‘This one is hostile to you, and this Zaydiite is hostile to us (asws)’.

    316. Abu Ali Al-Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Abdul Jabbaar, from Ibn Fazaal, from Ibrahim Bin Akhay Abu Shabl, from Abu Shabl who said: Abu Abdullah (asws) said to me initiating a conversation: ‘You have loved us (asws) whilst the people have hated us (asws), and you have ratified us (asws) whilst the people have belied us (asws), and you have submitted to us (asws) whilst the people have been disloyal to us (asws). So Allah (azwj) has Made your lives to be our (asws), and your deaths to be like our (asws) passing away. But, by Allah (azwj), there is nothing between the man and the delight which Allah (azwj) has kept for him except for the soul to reach this place’ – and he (asws) gestured with his (asws) to his (asws) throat and extended the skin. Then he (asws) repeated that, so by Allah (azwj), he (asws) was not happy until he (asws) took an oath to me, so he (asws) said: ‘By Allah (azwj) besides Whom there is no god except for Him (azwj), my (asws) father (asws) Muhammad Bin Ali (asws) narrated that to me. O Abu Shabl! Are you not happy that you pray, and they pray, so it is accepted from you and it’s not accepted from them? Are you not happy that you give zakat, and they give zakat, so it is accepted from you and it’s not accepted from them? Are you not happy that you perform the pilgrimage and they perform the pilgrimage, so Allah (azwj) Accepts from you and does not Accept from them? By Allah (azwj)! The prayer is not accepted except from you, nor the zakat except from you, nor the pilgrimage except from you’. So fear Allah (azwj) for you are in a truce and fulfil the trusts for it is an excellent (merit) of the people. So fulfil that. All the people went according to their desires and you went with the truth in what you obeyed us (asws). Is it not that the judges, and the rulers, and the problem solvers (those who would give fatwa) are among them?’ I said, ‘Yes’. He (asws) said: ‘So fear Allah (azwj) for you will not be able to tolerate all these people. The people take from here and there, and you are taking from where Allah (azwj) has Told you to take from. Allah (azwj) Chose Muhammad (saww) from His (azwj) servants, so you have chosen the Choice of Allah (azwj). So fear Allah (azwj) and fulfil the trusts to the black and the white, even if he was a Haruriyya (a sect) or if he was a Syrian’.

And he (asws) made me sit on settee along with him (asws)’. Then she came in, and she spoke. She was an eloquent woman. So she asked about the two of them. So he (asws) said: ‘Consider them as friends. She said, ‘So shalI I say to my Lord (azwj) when I meet Him (azwj) that you (asws) have ordered me to befriend these two?’ So he (asws) said: ‘Yes’. She said, ‘This one who is with you (asws) upon the settee has ordered me to distance myself from those two, and Kusayr Al-Nawaa has ordered me to befriend those two. So which one is better and more beloved to you (asws)?’ He (asws) said: ‘By Allah (azwj)! This one is more beloved to me (asws) than Kusayr Al-Nawaa and his companions. This one here debates by saying: “[5:44] and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the unbelievers” “[5:45] and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the unjust.” “[5:47] and whoever did not judge by what Allah revealed, those are they that are the transgressors”.’

    أَبَانٌ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ الْمَكِّيِّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ (عليه السلام) يَقُولُ إِنَّ عُمَرَ لَقِيَ أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عليه السلام) فَقَالَ أَنْتَ الَّذِي تَقْرَأُ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ بِأَيِّكُمُ الْمَفْتُونُ تَعَرُّضاً بِي وَ بِصَاحِبِي قَالَ أَ فَلَا أُخْبِرُكَ بِآيَةٍ نَزَلَتْ فِي بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ فَهَلْ عَسَيْتُمْ إِنْ تَوَلَّيْتُمْ أَنْ تُفْسِدُوا فِي الْأَرْضِ وَ تُقَطِّعُوا أَرْحامَكُمْ فَقَالَ كَذَبْتَ بَنُو أُمَيَّةَ أَوْصَلُ لِلرَّحِمِ مِنْكَ وَ لَكِنَّكَ أَبَيْتَ إِلَّا عَدَاوَةً لِبَنِي تَيْمٍ وَ عَدِيٍّ وَ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ.

    325. Abaan, from Abdul Rahmaan Bin Abu Abdullah, from Abu Al-Abbas Al-Makky who said: I heard Abu Ja’far (asws) saying that: ‘Umar met Amir-ul-Momineen (asws) and said, ‘You (asws) are the one who recites this Verse: “[68:6] Which of you is afflicted with madness”, applying it to me and my companion (abu Bakr)’. He (asws) said: ‘Shall I (asws) not inform you of the Verse which Descended regarding the Clan of Umayya: “[47:22] But if you held command, you were sure to make mischief in the land and cut off the ties of kinship!”. So he said, ‘You (asws) are lying. The Clan of Umayya establish more ties of kinship than you (asws) do, but you (asws) are most insistent upon enmity to the Clan of Taym (Abu Bakr’s tribe) and Udayy (Umar’s tribe), and the Clan of Umayya’.

    326. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Haroun Bin Muslim, from Mas’ada Bin Sadaqa, who has said: Abu Abdullah (asws) having said: ‘Ali (asws) used to stand in the first downpour when it rained, to the extent that his (asws) head, and his (asws) beard, and his (asws) clothes would get wet. So it was said to him (asws), ‘O Amir-ul-Momineen (asws)! Take shelter, take shelter!’ So he (asws) would say that: ‘This is water from near the Throne’. Then he (asws) went on to narrate: ‘Underneath the Throne there is an ocean in which there is water which makes the sustenance of the animals to grow. So if Allah (azwj) Intends that He (azwj) should Make to grow whatever that He (azwj) so Desires to for them as a Mercy for them, Allah (azwj) Reveals to it. So it rains from sky to sky until it comes to the sky of the world to the clouds. And the clouds are at the status of the sieve. Then Allah (azwj) Reveals to the wind to grind it and melt it, dissolving the water. Then it takes it to such and such a place and pours upon it. So that becomes such and such a torrent and other than that. Thus, it rains upon the area which it had been Ordered to. There is no drop from the drops except that there is an Angel with it until he places it in a particular place. There does not descend a drop from the sky except that it is numbered precisely and is of a known weight, except when it was the day of the storm in the era of Noah (as), on that day it poured without measurement or number’. And Abu Abdullah (asws) narrated to me saying: ‘My (asws) father said to me (asws), that Amir-ul-Momineen (asws) said, that the Rasool Allah (saww) said: ‘Allah (azwj) Made the cloud to be as a sieve for the rain, and the sleet melts until it becomes water, not harming anything by it. The harm is what you see from the sleet and the lightning as a Wrath from Allah (azwj) Harming whosoever He (azwj) so desires from His (azwj) servants’. Then he (asws) said: ‘Then the Rasool Allah (saww) said: ‘Do not point (accuse) the rain or the crescent, for Allah (azwj) Abhors that’.

    327. A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ali Bin Asbaat with an unbroken chain, said: Amir-ul-Momineen (asws) wrote to Ibn Abbas: ‘Having said that, what has made the person happy is what he did not miss, and grieved for what he never could have got, ever. The efforts that you have made should make you happy with what you have sent forward from the righteous deeds, or Judgement, or speech, and it is to your regret regarding what you have neglected from that. And leave what you have missed from the world and do not grieve a lot for it. And what you have got from it, do not enjoy in its delight, but ponder over what comes after the death. With greetings’.

So I (asws) said to Abu Ja’far (asws): ‘May I (asws) be sacrificed for you (asws), these are your (asws) Shites and your (asws) friends’. He (asws) said: ‘Where are they?’ I (asws) said: ‘In between the Grave and the Pulpit’. He (asws) said: ‘So come with me (asws) to them’. So he (asws) went and greeted them, then said: ‘I (asws) love your aromas, and your souls, so support this with piety and struggle. What is with Allah (azwj) cannot be achieved except by piety and struggle, and if you follow a servant (an Imam (asws)), so follow him (emulate his (asws) deeds). But, by Allah (azwj), all of you are upon my (asws) Religion, and the Religion of my (asws) forefather Ibrahim (as) and Ismail (as), and if these were upon a Religion so they supported this by piety and struggle’.

    عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ حَمَّادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مُسْكَانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ نَحْنُ أَصْلُ كُلِّ خَيْرٍ وَ مِنْ فُرُوعِنَا كُلُّ بِرٍّ فَمِنَ الْبِرِّ التَّوْحِيدُ وَ الصَّلَاةُ وَ الصِّيَامُ وَ كَظْمُ الْغَيْظِ وَ الْعَفْوُ عَنِ الْمُسِي‏ءِ وَ رَحْمَةُ الْفَقِيرِ وَ تَعَهُّدُ الْجَارِ وَ الْإِقْرَارُ بِالْفَضْلِ لِأَهْلِهِ وَ عَدُوُّنَا أَصْلُ كُلِّ شَرٍّ وَ مِنْ فُرُوعِهِمْ كُلُّ قَبِيحٍ وَ فَاحِشَةٍ فَمِنْهُمُ الْكَذِبُ وَ الْبُخْلُ وَ النَّمِيمَةُ وَ الْقَطِيعَةُ وَ أَكْلُ الرِّبَا وَ أَكْلُ مَالِ الْيَتِيمِ بِغَيْرِ حَقِّهِ وَ تَعَدِّي الْحُدُودِ الَّتِي أَمَرَ اللَّهُ وَ رُكُوبُ الْفَوَاحِشِ مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَ مَا بَطَنَ وَ الزِّنَا وَ السَّرِقَةُ وَ كُلُّ مَا وَافَقَ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الْقَبِيحِ فَكَذَبَ مَنْ زَعَمَ أَنَّهُ مَعَنَا وَ هُوَ مُتَعَلِّقٌ بِفُرُوعِ غَيْرِنَا.

    336. Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Abdullah, from Ibrahim Bin Is’haq, from Abdullah Bin Hammaad, from Ibn Muskaan, who has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah (asws) has said; ‘We (asws) are the origin of every good, and from our (asws) branches is every righteousness, So, from the righteousness is ‘التَّوْحِيدُ’ Oneness (Al-Tauheed), and the Prayer, and the Fasts, and suppression of the anger, and the pardoning others, and being merciful to the poor, and being helpful to the neighbour, and accepting the preference of the deserving ones. And our (asws) enemies are the origin of every evil, and from their branches is every ugliness and immorality. So, from these is the lie, and the niggardliness, and the slander, and the cutting-off (relationships), and consumption of the interest, and consumption of the wealth of the orphans without right, and infringement of the limits of the Commands of Allah (azwj), commission of the immoral acts, the apparent from it as well as the hidden, and the adultery, and the theft, and every that which is consistent with that from the ugliness. So he has lied, the one who thinks he is with us (asws) whilst he attaches himself to the branches of others (which are) rather than ours (asws)’.

    337. From him, and from someone else, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Usman Bin Isa, from Khalid Bin Najeeh, who has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah (asws) having said to a man: ‘Be content with what Allah (azwj) has Distributed to you, and do not look at what is in the possession of others, and do not covet what cannot be achieved, for the one who is content, he is satisfied, and the one who is not content is not at ease, and take your share from the Hereafter’. And Abu Abdullah (asws) said; ‘The most beneficial for the person is his precedence in finding faults with himself before (finding) the faults in others, and the most difficult thing is hiding the hunger, and the least of the (beneficial) things is the advice to the one who does not accept it and being in the neighbourhood of the greedy, and the most comforting of the comforts is in having despaired from the people’. And he (asws) said: ‘Do not be irritating or ill-mannered and humble yourself by bearing the one who opposes you, and the one who is above you, and the one who has a preference over you, and accept the preference of the one who is opposed to you. The one who does not accept the preference of others would be ‘الْمُعْجَبُ بِرَأْيِهِ’ self-conceited’. And he (asws) said to a man: ‘Know, that he has no honour, the one who does not humble himself to Allah (azwj) and no elevation for the one who does not humble himself before Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic’. And he (asws) said to a man: ‘Organise the affairs of your Religion just as the people of the world organise the affairs of their world. So the world has been Made as a witness by which the hidden matters of the Hereafter can be recognised. So recognise the Hereafter by it and do not look to the world except with a view to take a lesson from it’.

    338. A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father altogether, from Ibn Mahboub, from Hisham Bin Saalim who said: I heard Abu Abdullah (asws) saying to Humraan Bin Ayn: ‘O Humraan! Look to the one who is below you in the capability, and do not look at the one who is above you in the capability, for that would be contentment for you with what Allah (azwj) has Distributed for you, and you would be more likely to receive more from your Lord (azwj). And know that a small amount of deeds with certainty are more preferable in the Presence of Allah (azwj) than the numerous deeds performed without certainty. And know that there is no devoutness which is more beneficial than avoiding the Prohibitions of Allah (azwj) and the restraint from hurting the Believers and back-biting against them, and no life more enjoyable than good manners, and no wealth more beneficial than contentment with less, and no ignorance more harmful than ‘الْعُجْبِ’ the self-conceit’.

    339. Ibn Mahboub, from Abdullah Bin Ghalib, from his father Saeed Bin Al-Musayyab who said: I heard Ali (asws) Bin Al-Husayn (asws) saying that: ‘A man went to Amir-ul-Momineen (asws) and said, ‘Inform me, if you (asws) are knowledgeable, about the people, and about those who resemble the people, and about the Nasnaas’. So Amir-ul-Momineen (asws) said: ‘O Husayn (asws), answer the man’. So Al-Husayn (asws) said: ‘As for your word, ‘Inform me about the people’, so we (asws) are the people, and that is what Allah (azwj) Says in His (azwj) Book: “[2:199] Then hasten on from the Place from which the people hasten on”, so it is the Rasool Allah (saww) so he (saww) is the one (saww) about whom people should come forward. And as for your word, ‘Resembling the people’, so they are our (asws) Shites, and they are our (asws) friends, and they are from us (asws), and that is what Ibrahim (as) said: “[14:36] then whoever follows me, he is surely of me, and whoever disobeys me”. And as for your words, ‘The Nasnaas’, so they are the vast majority’ – and he (asws) gestured by his (asws) hand towards a group of the people, then said: ‘[25:44] They are nothing but as cattle; nay, they are straying farther off from the path”.

    340. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from hanaan Bin Sudeyr, and Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Ismail, from Hanaan Bin Sudeyr, from his father who said: I asked Abu Ja’far (asws) about the two (Abu Bakr and Umar), so he (asws) said: ‘O Abu Al-Fazl, don’t ask me about these two, for by Allah (azwj), no one from among us (asws) passes away at all except being angry against these two, and there is none from us (asws) today except that he (asws) is angry at them. The old ones bequeath it to the young ones from us (asws). These two have been unjust to us (asws) for our (asws) rights, and prevented us (asws) from our (asws) Fey (Spoils of War – Khums), and first one rode upon our (asws) necks, and caused damage to us (asws) with a damage in Al-Islam which can never be repaired ever until our (asws) Qaim (asws) makes a stand and speaks our (asws) speech’. Then he (asws) said; ‘But, by Allah (azwj), when our (asws) Qaim (asws) makes a stand, or speaks our (asws) speech, he (asws) will expose the matters of these two of what they had concealed, and conceal from their matters what they used to make apparent. By Allah (azwj), nothing has afflicted us (asws) from the afflictions, and what has passed of the difficulties against us (asws), the People (asws) of the Household, except that these two laid the foundations of it at first place, so against these two are the Curses of Allah (azwj), and the Angels, and the people altogether’.

Then the people realised after a while’. And he (asws) said: ‘They (ar) are the ones upon whom the grinding stone turned, but they still refused to pledge their (ar) allegiances until they went to Amir-ul-Momineen (asws), so they pledged their (ar) allegiances under threat, and that is the Statement of Allah (azwj) the High: “[3:144] And Muhammad is no more than a messenger; the messengers have already passed away before him; if then he dies or is killed will you turn back upon your heels? And whoever turns back upon his heels, he will by no means do harm to Allah in the least and Allah will reward the grateful”.’

So he (as) said to them: ‘When I (as) have Prayed the morning Prayer, I (as) will come with you’. So when he (as) had Prayed the morning Prayer, he (as) went and they went (with him (as)). So when they were on one of the roads, there was an ant there which had raised its hand to the sky, and placed its feet upon the earth, and it was saying, ‘Our Allah (azwj)! We are also creatures from Your (azwj) creatures, and we are not needless of Your (azwj) sustenance, so do not Destroy us for the sins committed by the children of Adam (as)’. So Suleiman said: ‘Return! You shall be quenched by others (in other ways)’. So they were quenched in that year the like of which they had never been quenched at all’.

    345. A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Musa Bin Ja’far, from Amro Bin Saeed, from Khalaf Bin Isa, from Abu Uney Al-Mada’iny, who has narrated the following: Abu Ja’far (asws) has said that Allah (azwj) has servants who are auspicious and righteous who are living, and the people live in their protection, and they are among His (azwj) servants at the status of the country. And Allah (azwj) has servants who are accursed and deniers. Neither do they live (a good life) nor do the people in their protection, and they are among His (azwj) servants at the status of the locusts. They do not occur on something except that they devour it’.

    346. Al-Husayn Bin Muhammad, and Muhammad Bin Yahya, together from Muhammad Bin Saalim Bin Abu Salma, from Al-Hassan Bin Shazaan Al-Wasity who said: I wrote to Abu Al-Hassan Al-Ridha (asws) complaining of my alienation from the people of ‘وَاسِطٍ’, and their burdening me, and they were from the Uthmaniyya group, hurting me’. So a reply came in his (asws) handwriting: ‘Surely Allah (azwj) has Taken a Covenant from our (asws) friends for the patience during the government of the falsehood. So be patient for the Judgement of your Lord (azwj). So when the chief of the creatures (Al-Qaim (asws)) makes a stand, they would say: “[36:52] They shall say: O woe to us! who has raised us up from our sleeping-place? This is what the Beneficent Allah promised and the messengers told the truth”.’

    347. Muhammad Bin Saalim Bin Abu Salma, from Ahmad Bin Al-Rayyaan, from his father, from Jameel Bin Darraaj, who has said: Abu Abdullah (asws) has said: ‘If the people knew the merits of recognising Allah (azwj) they would not extend their eyes to what treats the enemies of Allah (azwj) have from the blossoms of the life of the world and its bounties. And their world would seem little in their presence than what they are treading on with their feet, and they would enjoy the recognition of Allah (azwj) and relish it with a relish of the one who would not cease to be in the Gardens of the Paradise with the friends of Allah (azwj). The recognition of Allah (azwj) is a comfort in every frightening state, and a companionship in every loneliness, and a Light in every darkness, and strength in every weakness, and a healing in every illness’. Then he (asws) said: ‘And before them were a people who were killed, and burnt, and cut into pieces by the saw, and the earth became constricted for them. So nothing from such hardships could return them from what they were on. And you will see that the one who acted like that with them and hurt them was for no reason other than that they believed in Allah (azwj) the Mighty, the Praiseworthy. So ask your Lord (azwj) for their levels, and be patient upon the ravages of your time in order to understand their quest’.

    348. Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Saeed Bin Janaah, from one of our companions, who has said: Abu Abdullah (asws) has said: ‘Allah (azwj) has not Created a creature smaller than the mosquito, and Al-Jarjas is smaller than the mosquito, and that which we call Al-Wala’a is smaller than Al-Jarjas, and there is nothing which the elephant has except that it is in it, similar to it, and it is better than the elephant by having two wings’.

He (asws) said: ‘It was Revealed regarding the Wilayah of Ali (asws)’. He (the narrator) said, ‘And I asked him (asws) about the Statement of Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic: “[6:59], and there falls not a leaf but He knows it, nor a grain in the darkness of the earth, nor anything wet nor dry but (it is all) in a clear book”. He (asws) said: ‘The fallen leaf (is the miscarried child) and the grain is the child, and the darkness of the earth is the womb, and the wet is who lives from the people, and the dry is who has been Captured (died), and all that is in the manifest Imam (asws)’.

He (the narrator) said, ‘I said, ‘The Statement of the Mighty and Majestic: “[37:137] And most surely you pass by them in the morning, [37:138] And at night; do you not then understand?” He (asws) said: ‘You pass by them in the Quran when you recite the Quran, read what story Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic has Told you from their news’.

From him, from Ibn Muskaan, from a man from the people of Al-Jabl whom he did not name, has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah (asws) said: ‘It is on you to be with the original, and beware of every newly invented matter as there is no pledge for it, nor a trust for it, nor a guarantee for it, nor a Covenant for it. And be cautious of the people whom you rely upon for yourself, for the people are the enemies of the bounties’.
