Hadith 418
۞
Through the above chain of narrators it is narrated from Yunus from Sa‘dan, in a marfu‘ manner, from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), who said the following
“Allah has not granted any bounties to a person without holding him justifiably responsible for them. He gives them bounties and gives them power, which justifies His holding them responsible for their duties. He gives smaller degrees of responsibilities to those who are of lesser degrees of capabilities. One who has received bounties from Allah He has provided him ease, thus the justification to hold him responsible is the comfort he has received. Then it is for him to help the needy in optional ways. The one whom Allah has favored and has made noble in his house and beautiful in his form, is justifiably obligated for
وَبِهَذَا الاسْنَادِ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ سَعْدَانَ رَفَعَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
إِنَّ الله لَمْ يُنْعِمْ عَلَى عَبْدٍ نِعْمَةً إِلا وَقَدْ أَلْزَمَهُ فِيهَا الْحُجَّةَ مِنَ الله فَمَنْ مَنَّ الله عَلَيْهِ فَجَعَلَهُ قَوِيّاً فَحُجَّتُهُ عَلَيْهِ الْقِيَامُ بِمَا كَلَّفَهُ وَاحْتِمَالُ مَنْ هُوَ دُونَهُ مِمَّنْ هُوَ أَضْعَفُ مِنْهُ وَمَنْ مَنَّ الله عَلَيْهِ فَجَعَلَهُ مُوَسَّعاً عَلَيْهِ فَحُجَّتُهُ عَلَيْهِ مَالُهُ ثُمَّ تَعَاهُدُهُ الْفُقَرَاءَ بَعْدُ بِنَوَافِلِهِ وَمَنْ مَنَّ الله عَلَيْهِ فَجَعَلَهُ شَرِيفاً فِي بَيْتِهِ جَمِيلاً فِي صُورَتِهِ فَحُجَّتُهُ عَلَيْهِ أَنْ يَحْمَدَ الله تَعَالَى عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَأَنْ لا يَتَطَاوَلَ عَلَى غَيْرِهِ فَيَمْنَعَ حُقُوقَ الضُّعَفَاءِ لِحَالِ شَرَفِهِ وَجَمَالِهِ.
