5. `Ali ibn Ahmad ibn `Abd Allah ibn Ahmad ibn Abu `Abd Allah al-Barqi (RA) said: My father said, on the authority of his grandfather Ahmad ibn Abu `Abd Allah, on the authority of alHasan ibn `Ali ibn Fuddal, on the authority of `Ali ibn `Uqbah, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Sulayman ibn Khalid, on the authority of Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq, on the authority of his father, on the authority of his grandfather (AS) who said that One day the Messenger of Allah smiled until his teeth were showing, He (SA) said
“Will you not ask me why I smiled?” The replied, “Of course, O Messenger of Allah.” He (SA) said: “I am astonished at a Muslim person that there is not a prayer, which Allah, the Mighty and High, grants him except there is good for him in the Hereafter.”
5 - حدثنا علي بن أحمد بن عبد الله بن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله البرقي (ره) قال حدثنا أبي، عن جده أحمد بن أبي عبد الله، عن الحسن بن علي بن فضال، عن علي بن عقبة، عن أبيه، عن سليمان بن خالد، عن أبي عبد الله الصادق، عن أبيه، عن جده عليهم السلام قال
ضحك رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله ذات يوم حتى بدت نواجذه، ثم قال: ألا تسألوني مم ضحكت، قالوا: بلى يا رسول الله، قال: عجبت للمرء المسلم أنه ليس من قضاء يقضيه الله عز وجل إلا كان خيرا له في عاقبة أمره.
