11. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) narrates that Amirul Momineen (a.s.) said, “One who oppresses people, fears retaliation.”
أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ هَارُونَ بْنِ الْحَکَمِ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ
قَالَ عَلِیٌّ ع إِنَّمَا أخاف [خَافَ] الْقِصَاصَ مَنْ کَفَّ عَنْ ظُلْمِ النَّاسِ.
