4733 - وَ فِي رِوَايَةِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ اَلْحَضْرَمِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : فِي قَوْلِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ:
وَ اَلَّذِينَ آمَنُوا وَ اِتَّبَعَتْهُمْ ذُرِّيَّتُهُمْ بِإِيمٰانٍ أَلْحَقْنٰا بِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّتَهُمْ
قَالَ "قَصَرَتِ اَلْأَبْنَاءُ عَنْ أَعْمَالِ اَلْآبَاءِ فَأَلْحَقَ اَللَّهُ اَلْأَبْنَاءَ بِالْآبَاءِ لِتَقَرَّ بِذَلِكَ أَعْيُنُهُمْ".
