Umar ibn Yazeed said: “I was dining with Imam Sadiq (a.s) when he recited the verse: “Nay, man will be evidence against himself, even though he were to put up his excuse. [The Holy Quran: Qiyamat 75:14-15] and said: “How can man approach the people (through hypocrisy) in a way opposite to what God knows about? God's Prophet (a.s) said: “Whoever has an intention, God will put on him an attire for that intention. If it is a good intention, it will be a good attire. If it is an ugly intention, it will be an ugly one.”
عن عمر بن يزيد قال
إني كنت أتعشى مع أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام) إذ تلا هذه الآية: ﴿بل الانسان على نفسه بصيرة﴾ ﴿ولو ألقى معاذيره﴾ وقال: يا أبا حفص، ما يصنع الإنسان أن يتقرب إلى الناس بخلاف ما يعلم الله؟ إن رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله) يقول: من أسر سريرة رداه الله رداءها، إن خيرا فخير وإن شرا فشر.
