Imam Sadiq (a.s) narrated on the authority of his noble grandfather (a.s) that
a man went to see the Prophet (a.s) and prayed: “O' God! Please make us needless of all creatures.” Then the Prophet of God (a.s) said: “Do not pray this way. Say: O' God! Please make us needless of the wicked creatures, since a believer is never needless of his believing brothers.”
عن أبي عبد الله عن آبائه (عليهم السلام) قال
قال رجل عند النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله): اللهم أغننا عن جميع خلقك، فقال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): لا تقولن هكذا ولكن قل: اللهم أغننا عن شرار خلقك، فإن المؤمن لا يستغني عن أخيه المؤمن.
