Hadith 298
۞
3-56 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’ed ibn Abdullah quoted Ahmad ibn Aba Abdullah al-Barqy, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Abi Umayr, on the authority of Muawiyah ibn Wahab that Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) told him
“O Muawiyah! Whoever is granted three things would not be deprived of three things. Whoever is granted ‘the chance to call upon God’ is also granted ‘an answer to his prayers’. Whoever is granted ‘being grateful’ is also granted ‘an increase in favors’. Whoever is granted ‘reliance’ is also granted ‘sufficiency’ as the Honorable the Exalted God says in His Book, ‘…And if anyone puts his trust in God, sufficient is (God) for him…’ and says, ‘… If ye are grateful, I will add more (favors) unto you;…’ ; and says, ‘Call on Me; I will answer your (Prayer):…’
3-56 حدثنا أبي رضي الله عنه قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله قال: حدثني أحمد بن أبي عبد الله البرقي، عن أبيه، عن محمد بن أبي عمير، عن معاوية بن وهب عن أبي عبد الله عليه السلام
أنه قال: يا معاوية. من أعطى ثلاثة لم يحرم ثلاثة: من أعطي الدعاء اعطي الاجابة، ومن اعطي الشكر اعطي الزيادة، ومن اعطي التوكل اعطي الكفاية، فان الله عز وجل يقول في كتابه: "وَمَنْ يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ" ويقول: "لَئِنْ شَكَرْتُمْ لَأَزِيدَنَّكُمْ" ويقول: "ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ "
