hadith 8844
Imam Ali (AS) said, Verily Allah, the Glorified, commanded His servants by choice and forbade them by warning. He made duties easy and did not impose difficult duties. For a little He gave plenty. He is not disobeyed out of defeat nor is He obeyed by force. He did not send prophets for sport, nor did He reveal the Book to the creation for amusement. He did not create the Heavens and the earth in vain: That is a conjecture of the faithless. So woe to the faithless for the Fire.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إنَّ اللّهَ سُبْحانَهُ أمَرَ عِبادَهُ تَخْييراً وَنَهاهُمْ تَحْذيراً وَ كَلَّفَ يَسيراً وَ لَمْ يُكَلِّفْ عَسيراً وَ أعْطَى عَلىَ القَليلِ كَثيراً وَ لَمْ يُعْصَ مَغْلُوباً وَ لَمْ يُطَعْ مُكْرَهاً وَ لَمْ يُرْسِلِ الأنْبِياءَ لَعِباً وَ لَمْ يُنْزِلِ الكِتابَ عَبَثاً وَ ما خَلَقَ السَّماواتِ وَ الأرْضَ وَ ما بَيْنَهُما باطِلاً ذلِكَ ظَنُّ الَّذينَ كَفَرُوا فَوَيْلٌ لِلَّذينَ كَفَرُوا مِنَ النّارِ
