Hadith 10
۞
9. Ali Bin Muhammad, from someone he has mentioned, from Muhammad Bin Al-Husayn, and Humeyd Bin Zyad, from Al-Hassan Bin Muhammad Al-Kindy altogether, from Ahmad Bin Al-Hassan Al-Maysami, from a man from his companions who said
‘I read the answer from Abu Abdullah (asws) to a man from his (asws) companions. After this (having Praised Allah (azwj),), I (asws) hereby advise you all to fear Allah (azwj), for He (azwj) has Taken the responsibility for the one who is pious to turn them around from what He (azwj) Abhors towards what He (azwj) Loves, and Sustain him from where he does not expect. So beware of becoming from those who are feared by the servants due to their sins whereas they themselves feel secure from the consequences of their own sins. Allah (azwj) cannot be deceived about His (azwj) Paradise, nor can that be achieved which is with Him (azwj) except by being obedient to Him (azwj), Allah (azwj) Willing’.
عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ وَ حُمَيْدُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْكِنْدِيِّ جَمِيعاً عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الْمِيثَمِيِّ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ قَالَ
قَرَأْتُ جَوَاباً مِنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) إِلَى رَجُلٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَإِنِّي أُوصِيكَ بِتَقْوَى اللَّهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ قَدْ ضَمِنَ لِمَنِ اتَّقَاهُ أَنْ يُحَوِّلَهُ عَمَّا يَكْرَهُ إِلَى مَا يُحِبُّ وَ يَرْزُقَهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لَا يَحْتَسِبُ فَإِيَّاكَ أَنْ تَكُونَ مِمَّنْ يَخَافُ عَلَى الْعِبَادِ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِمْ وَ يَأْمَنُ الْعُقُوبَةَ مِنْ ذَنْبِهِ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَا يُخْدَعُ عَنْ جَنَّتِهِ وَ لَا يُنَالُ مَا عِنْدَهُ إِلَّا بِطَاعَتِهِ إِنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ .
