Hadith 1654
۞
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hammad from Hariz from Zurarah who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ’Every time Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, sent a Prophet, it was in the knowledge of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, that in the case of completing his religion wine must have been made unlawful. It had to remain unlawful, however, religion is to change the habits one after the other. Were such change to take place at once people would boycott religion as a whole.’ Abu Ja’far (a.s.), has said, ‘No one is more kind than Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, and it is of the kindness of Allah, most Blessed, most High, that He transfers them from one habit to the other. Were He to change them at once they would have been destroyed.’”
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) مَا بَعَثَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ نَبِيّاً قَطُّ إِلَّا وَ فِي عِلْمِ اللَّهِ أَنَّهُ إِذَا أَكْمَلَ دِينَهُ كَانَ فِيهِ تَحْرِيمُ الْخَمْرِ وَ لَمْ تَزَلِ الْخَمْرُ حَرَاماً وَ إِنَّمَا يُنْقَلُونَ مِنْ خَصْلَةٍ إِلَى خَصْلَةٍ وَ لَوْ حُمِلَ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ جُمْلَةً لَقُطِعَ بِهِمْ دُونَ الدِّينِقَالَ وَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) لَيْسَ أَحَدٌ أَرْفَقَ مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فَمِنْ رِفْقِهِ تَبَارَكَ وَ تَعَالَى أَنَّهُ نَقَلَهُمْ مِنْ خَصْلَةٍ إِلَى خَصْلَةٍ وَ لَوْ حَمَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ جُمْلَةً لَهَلَكُوا .
