Zaris al-Kanasi narrated that he went to see Imam Baqir (a.s) with several other people including Hamran ibn Aein. Hamran said
“O' May I be your devoted servant! When we read the verse: “Whatever misfortune happens to you is because of the things your hands have wrought.” [The Holy Quran: Shura 42:30] does it mean that the misfortunes that happened to the Prophet (a.s) and Ameer al-Momineen (a.s) and the Holy Household were due to sins?” Imam Baqir (a.s) replied: “O' Hamran! Their misfortunes were not due to sins. But their misfortunes were so extensive that they will get rewarded for them.”
عن ضريس الكناسي قال
كنا عند أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) جماعة وفينا حمران بن أعين، فقال له حمران: جعلت فداك قول الله عز وجل: ﴿وما أصابكم من مصيبة فبما كسبت أيديكم﴾ أرأيت ما أصاب النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله) وأمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام) وأهل بيته من المصائب بذنب؟ فقال: يا حمران، أصابهم ما أصابهم من المصائب بغير ذنب، ولكن يطول عليهم بالمصائب ليأجرهم عليها من غير ذنب.
