۞
11. My father, may Allah grant him mercy, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Muhammed bin Isa, from Ali bin Hakam, from Saif bin ‘Umayra, from Abu’s-Sabah, from Abu Ja’far, peace be upon him, that he said
with regards to the weakened who do not find any (means of) deception nor are guided to the path: They are unfit to (reach) deception by which they enter into disbelief, nor are they guided by which they enter into faith. Hence, they are into nothing with regards to disbelief and faith.
أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن علي بن الحكم، عن سيف بن عميرة، عن أبي الصباح، عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام
أنه قال في المستضعفين الذين لا يجدون حيلة ولا يهتدون سبيلا: لا يستطيعون حيلة فيدخلوا في الكفر ولم يهتدوا فيدخلوا في الايمان فليس هم من الكفر والايمان في شئ.
