16. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Bakr ibn Salih from al-Shaybaniy from Yunus ibn Zabayan who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), once said to me, £ 0 Yunus ibn Zabayan, convey my words to ‘Atiyyah that if one drinks one sip of wine Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, condemns him and so also do His angels, His Messengers and the believing people. If he drinks until he becomes drunk, the spirit of belief is taken away from his body and a filthy condemned spirit rides him. He then stops performing Salat (prayer). When he stops performing Salat (prayer) the angels scold him and Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, says to him, ‘My servant, you have disbelieved and the angels have scolded you because of your evilness, My servant.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), then said, ‘It is evil, an evil that is real. By Allah, it is a great scolding, His name is glorious, His scolding of one hour is more severe than suffering for one thousand years.’ He (the narrator) has said that abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), then said, ‘. . . they are condemned wherever they live, they are taken and killed entirely.’ (33:61) He (the Imam) then said, ‘O Yunus, condemned is one who overlooks the command of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious. If he goes on land, he is destroyed and if he goes in the sea, he is drowned. He is subjected to anger because of the anger of the glorious One whose name is majestic.’”
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ بَكْرِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ ظَبْيَانَ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَا يُونُسَ بْنَ ظَبْيَانَ أَبْلِغْ عَطِيَّةَ عَنِّي أَنَّهُ مَنْ شَرِبَ جُرْعَةً مِنْ خَمْرٍ لَعَنَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ مَلَائِكَتُهُ وَ رُسُلُهُ وَ الْمُؤْمِنُونَ فَإِنْ شَرِبَهَا حَتَّى يَسْكَرَ مِنْهَا نُزِعَ رُوحُ الْإِيمَانِ مِنْ جَسَدِهِ وَ رَكِبَتْ فِيهِ رُوحٌ سَخِيفَةٌ خَبِيثَةٌ مَلْعُونَةٌ فَيَتْرُكُ الصَّلَاةَ فَإِذَا تَرَكَ الصَّلَاةَ عَيَّرَتْهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ وَ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَهُ عَبْدِي كَفَرْتَ وَ عَيَّرَتْكَ الْمَلَائِكَةُ سَوْأَةً لَكَ عَبْدِيثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) سَوْأَةً سَوْأَةً كَمَا تَكُونُ السَّوْأَةَ وَ اللَّهِ لَتَوْبِيخُ الْجَلِيلِ جَلَّ اسْمُهُ سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً أَشَدُّ مِنْ عَذَابِ أَلْفِ عَامٍقَالَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) مَلْعُونِينَ أَيْنَما ثُقِفُوا أُخِذُوا وَ قُتِّلُوا تَقْتِيلًا ثُمَّ قَالَ يَا يُونُسُ مَلْعُونٌ مَلْعُونٌ مَنْ تَرَكَ أَمْرَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِنْ أَخَذَ بَرّاً دَمَّرَتْهُ وَ إِنْ أَخَذَ بَحْراً غَرَّقَتْهُ يُغْضَبُ لِغَضَبِ الْجَلِيلِ عَزَّ اسْمُهُ .
