Hadith 545
۞
545. A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ubeydullah Al-Dahqaan, from Abdullah Bin Al-Qasim, from Ibn Abu Najraan, from Aban Bin Taglub, who has narrated: Abu Abdullah (asws) has said; ‘The Messiah (as) used to say
‘The one who avoids treating the wounded from his wounds is inevitably an associate of the one who wounded him, and that the injurer intended to destroy the wounded one, and the one who avoided treating him did not desire his well being. So if he did not desire his well being so he has desired his destruction unwillingly. Similar to that, do not narrate the wisdom to the one who does not deserve it for it would be ignorant of you, and do not prevent it from its deserving ones, for you would be a sinner, but one of you should become of the status of a doctor who treats when he sees it is appropriate for his medicine, otherwise he withholds’.
عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ الدِّهْقَانِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْقَاسِمِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي نَجْرَانَ عَنْ أَبَانِ بْنِ تَغْلِبَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ
كَانَ الْمَسِيحُ (عليه السلام) يَقُولُ إِنَّ التَّارِكَ شِفَاءَ الْمَجْرُوحِ مِنْ جُرْحِهِ شَرِيكٌ لِجَارِحِهِ لَا مَحَالَةَ وَ ذَلِكَ أَنَّ الْجَارِحَ أَرَادَ فَسَادَ الْمَجْرُوحِ وَ التَّارِكَ لِإِشْفَائِهِ لَمْ يَشَأْ صَلَاحَهُ فَإِذَا لَمْ يَشَأْ صَلَاحَهُ فَقَدْ شَاءَ فَسَادَهُ اضْطِرَاراً فَكَذَلِكَ لَا تُحَدِّثُوا بِالْحِكْمَةِ غَيْرَ أَهْلِهَا فَتَجْهَلُوا وَ لَا تَمْنَعُوهَا أَهْلَهَا فَتَأْثَمُوا وَ لْيَكُنْ أَحَدُكُمْ بِمَنْزِلَةِ الطَّبِيبِ الْمُدَاوِي إِنْ رَأَى مَوْضِعاً لِدَوَائِهِ وَ إِلَّا أَمْسَكَ.
