1. My father, may Allah grant him mercy, said: We were told by Sa’d bin Abdullah, from Ahmad bin Abi Abdillah, from his father, from Muhammed bin Umar, from his father, from Nasr bin Qabous, that he said
I asked Abu Abdillah, peace be upon him, about the meaning of the narration: «The one who is pleased from Allah, Exalted is He, with little sustenance, Allah, Exalted is He, will be pleased with him for little deeds.» He said: That he obeys Him in some and disobeys Him in some.
أبي - رحمه الله - قال: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله، عن أبيه عن محمد بن عمر، عن أبيه، عن النصر بن قابوس، قال
سألت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام عن معنى الحديث " من رضي من الله تعالى باليسير من الرزق رضي الله تعالى عنه باليسير من العمل " قال: يطيعه في بعض ويعصيه في بعض.
