Hadith 624
۞
3. It is narrated from Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s.) that the
Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said, “My presence among you and your repentance is a strong fortress to remain safe from chastisement.” Imam said, “Now our great protection is no longer with the world and the only thing remaining is repentance. So repent a lot for it wipes sins as Almighty Allah says: But Allah was not going to chastise them while you were among them, nor is Allah going to chastise them while yet they ask for forgiveness.”15
حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیٍّ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُوسَی بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِیِّ بْنِ نُوحٍ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ عُقْبَهَ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْجُعْفِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ ع قَالَ
سَمِعْتُهُ یَقُولُ کَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص یَقُولُ مُقَامِی فِیکُمْ وَ الِاسْتِغْفَارُ لَکُمْ حِصْنٌ حَصِینٌ مِنَ الْعَذَابِ فَمَضَی أَکْثَرُ الْحِصْنَیْنِ وَ بَقِیَ الِاسْتِغْفَارُ فَأَکْثِرُوا مِنْهُ فَإِنَّهُ مَمْحَاهٌ لِلذُّنُوبِ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ- وَ ما کانَ اللَّهُ لِیُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَ أَنْتَ فِیهِمْ وَ ما کانَ اللَّهُ مُعَذِّبَهُمْ وَ هُمْ یَسْتَغْفِرُونَ
