17. Ibn abu ‘Umayr has narrated from al-Hassan ibn ‘Atiyyah from ‘Umar ibn Yazid who has said the following
“Once I said to Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) ‘I prayed to Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, for property and He granted me. I prayed to Allah for a child and He granted me. I prayed to Him for a house and He granted me. I am afraid that it (coming true of my wishes) is a kind of leading me to my own destruction (gradually)’ The Imam said, ‘I swear by Allah, it is not so if it takes place along with expressing His praise.’”
17ـ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَطِيَّةَ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) إِنِّي سَأَلْتُ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ أَنْ يَرْزُقَنِي مَالاً فَرَزَقَنِي وَإِنِّي سَأَلْتُ الله أَنْ يَرْزُقَنِي وَلَداً فَرَزَقَنِي وَلَداً وَسَأَلْتُهُ أَنْ يَرْزُقَنِي دَاراً فَرَزَقَنِي وَقَدْ خِفْتُ أَنْ يَكُونَ ذَلِكَ اسْتِدْرَاجاً فَقَالَ أَمَا وَالله مَعَ الْحَمْدِ فَلا.
