Hadith 26
۞
(The same previous series of relaters)… from Ahmed bin Mohammed from as-Salih Bin Maitham that Abu Abdullah (a) said
He who enjoys three characters has the qualities of faith in perfect: to tolerate the wrong, to suppress the anger, and to pardon for the sake of gaining Allah’s rewards. For anyone who enjoys such characters, Allah will take him to Paradise and will grant him the right to intercede for individuals as many as the individuals of (the tribes of) Rabeea and Madhar.
وَ بِهَذَا اَلْإِسْنَادِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ اَلصَّالِحِ بْنِ هَيْثَمٍ [مِيثَمٍ] عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ ع قَالَ
ثَلاَثٌ مَنْ كُنَّ فِيهِ اِسْتَكْمَلَ خِصَالَ اَلْإِيمَانِ- مَنْ صَبَرَ عَلَى اَلظُّلْمِ فَكَظَمَ غَيْظَهُ وَ اِحْتَسَبَ وَ عَفَا كَانَ مِمَّنْ يُدْخِلُهُ اَللَّهُ اَلْجَنَّةَ وَ يُشَفَّعُ فِي مِثْلِ رَبِيعَةَ وَ مُضَرَ .
