۞
Muhammad b. al-Hasan b. Ahmad b. al-Walid (ra) narrated to us. He said: Muhammad b. al-Hasan al-Saffar narrated to us from Salama b. al-Khattab from `Ali b. al-Hasan from Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Mu’addab from `Asim b. Humayd from Khalid al-Qalanisi. He said
Al-Sadiq Ja`far b. Muhammad (as) said: An elderly man will come on the Day of Resurrection, and he will be given his book. On the apparent, it will have what he partook in by following the people, and he will only see disappointment. That will be prolonged for him; so, he will say: “O Lord! Will you send me to the Fire?!” So, the Almighty will say: “O elderly man! I would be ashamed to punish you because you would pray in the abode of the world. Go with My servants to Paradise.”

قال الصادق جعفر ابن محمد (عليهما السلام): يؤتى بشيخ يوم القيامة فيدفع إليه كتابه، ظاهره مما يلي الناس، لا يرى إلا مساوئ، فيطول ذلك عليه، فيقول: يا رب، أتأمر بي إلى النار! فيقول الجبار جل جلاله: يا شيخ، إني أستحيي أن أعذبك وقد كنت تصلي في دار الدنيا، اذهبوا بعبدي إلى الجنة (1).
