2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Sayf ibn ‘Amirah from ‘Abd al-‘ Ala’ who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘My father would say, “One who decides to perform Hajj or ‘Umrah free of al-Kibr (arrogance) returns, in matters of sins, as the day his mother gave birth to him.’” He (the Imam) then read this, ‘On one who hastens during the two days, there is no sin, and on one who delays, there is no sin.’ (2:199) I (the narrator) then asked, ‘What is al-Kibr?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘The Messenger of Allah, O Allah, grant compensation to Muhammad and his family worthy of their services to Your cause, has said, “The greatest al-Kibr is ghamd and Safah of the creatures.’” I then asked, ‘What is ghamd and safah of creatures?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘It is ignoring the truth, and falsifying the people of truth. Whoever does this has quarreled with Allah about His gown.’”
2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الأَعْلَى قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) كَانَ أَبِي يَقُولُ مَنْ أَمَّ هَذَا الْبَيْتَ حَاجّاً أَوْ مُعْتَمِراً مُبَرَّأً مِنَ الْكِبْرِ رَجَعَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ كَهَيْئَةِ يَوْمَ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ ثُمَّ قَرَأَ فَمَنْ تَعَجَّلَ فِي يَوْمَيْنِ فَلا إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ وَمَنْ تَأَخَّرَ فَلا إِثْمَ عَلَيْهِ لِمَنِ اتَّقى‏ قُلْتُ مَا الْكِبْرُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ الله (صلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) إِنَّ أَعْظَمَ الْكِبْرِ غَمْصُ الْخَلْقِ وَسَفَهُ الْحَقِّ قُلْتُ مَا غَمْصُ الْخَلْقِ وَسَفَهُ الْحَقِّ قَالَ يَجْهَلُ الْحَقَّ وَيَطْعُنُ عَلَى أَهْلِهِ وَمَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ نَازَعَ الله رِدَاءَهُ.
