2. He said: Abdul Husayn Muhammad ibnal-Muzaffar al-Bazzaz, reported to me from Abul Qasim Abdul Malik ibn ‘Ali al-Dahhan, who reported from Abul Hasan ‘Ali ibn al-Hasan, from al-Hasan ibn Bashir, from As’ad ibn Saeed from Jabir who said
Once, Amirul Mu’mineen ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib, peace be upon him heard someone abusing Qambar, and Qambar was about to answer back. So, Amirul Mu’mineen ‘Ali, peace be upon him, called out to Qambar: "Take it easy O, Qambar! Leave the one who abuses you to be ashamed of himself, so that Allah is pleased and Satan is resentful and your adversary is punished. For, By He Who, split the grain and created the breathing man, nothing from a believer pleases His Sustainer better than forbearance; and nothing makes Satan more indignant than the silence; and the fool is best punished when totally ignored."
2 - قال: أخبرني أبو الحسين محمد بن المظفر البزاز قال: حدثنا أبو القاسم عبد الملك بن علي الدهان قال: حدثنا أبو الحسن علي بن الحسن، عن الحسن بن بشير، عن أسعد بن سعيد، عن جابر قال
سمع أمير المؤمنين علي بن أبي طالب عليه السلام رجلا يشتم قنبرا وقد رام قنبر أن يرد عليه، فناداه أمير المؤمنين علي عليه السلام: مهلا يا قنبر، دع شاتمك مهانا ترض الرحمن، وتسخط الشيطان، وتعاقب عدوك. فوالذي فلق الحبة وبرأ النسمة ما أرضى المؤمن ربه بمثل الحلم، ولا أسخط الشيطان بمثل الصمت، ولا عوقب الأحمق بمثل السكوت عنه.
