Hadith 1542
۞
2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Isma’il ibn Ibrahim from Hakam ibn ‘Utaybah who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) has said, ‘When the sins of a servant (of Allah) increase and he does not have enough good deeds to expiate them, Allah causes him to suffer sadness and depression.’”
2ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ عُتَيْبَةَ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ إِذَا كَثُرَتْ ذُنُوبُهُ وَلَمْ يَكُنْ عِنْدَهُ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ مَا يُكَفِّرُهَا ابْتَلاهُ بِالْحُزْنِ لِيُكَفِّرَهَا.
