1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Yusuf al- Bazzaz from Mu’alla ibn Khanis from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following
“One who, on the Day of Judgment, will regret the most is he who preaches justice but himself acts otherwise.”
1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ يُوسُفَ الْبَزَّازِ عَنْ مُعَلَّى بْنِ خُنَيْسٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام)
أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ مِنْ أَشَدِّ النَّاسِ حَسْرَةً يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَنْ وَصَفَ عَدْلاً ثُمَّ عَمِلَ بِغَيْرِهِ.
