لقاسم وفضالة عن أبان بن عثمان عن الصباح بن سيابه قال: سمعت كلاما يروى عن النبي (ص) أنه قال: السعيد من سعد في بطن أمه والشقي من شقى في بطن أمه والسعيد من وعظ بغيره وأكيس الكيس التقى وأحمق الحمق الفجور واشر الرواية رواية الكذب وأشر الأمور محدثاتها واشر العمى عمى القلب واشر الندامة حين يحضر أحدكم الموت وأعظم الندامة ندامة يوم القيامة وأعظم الخطأ عند الله لسان كذب و أشر الكسب كسب الربا وشر الاكل اكل مال اليتيم ظلما وأحسن زينة الرجل هدى حسن مع ايمان واملك امره به وقوله خواتمه ومن يبتغي السمعة يسمع الله بن ومن يثق بالدنيا يعجز عنه ومن يعرف البلاء يصبر عليه ومن لا يعرفه ينكل والذنب كفر ومن يستكبر يضعه الله ومن يطع الشيطان يعص الله ومن يعص الله يعذبه ومن يشكره يزده قال قاسم في حديثه: ومن يصبر على الرزية يعقبه الله ومن يتوكل على الله فحسبه الله لا تسخطوا الله برضا أحد من خلقه ولا تقربوا إلى أحد من الخلق يتباعد من الله فان الله ليس بينه وبين أحد من خلقه شئ يعطيه به خيرا أو يدفع عنه سوءا الا بطاعته وان طاعة الله نجاح من كل خير يبتغي ونجاة من كل شر يتقى وأن الله يعصم من أطعه ولا يعصم من عصاه ولا يجد الهارب من الله مهربا وأن أمر الله نازل على حاله ولو كره الخلايق وكل ما هو آت قريب ما شاء الله كان وما لم يشاء لم يكن تعاونوا على البر والتقوى ولا تعانوا على الاثم العدوان واتقوا الله ان الله شديد العقاب
5.Al-Qāsim and Faḍālah narrated from Abān ibn ʿUthmān, from alṢabbāḥ ibn Sayābah who said, “I heard a statement that was attributed to the Prophet (ṣ), that he said, ‘The felicitous is he who was felicitous in the womb of his mother, and the wretched is he who was wretched in the womb of his mother. And the felicitous is he who takes admonition from [the condition of] others. The most sagacious of all is he who is Godwary while the most foolish of all is he who is morally corrupt. The worst of narrations is the false narration, and the worst of affairs are those that are innovated [in religion]. The worst blindness is the blindness of the heart, and the worst regret is when death comes to one of you. The greatest regret is the regret on the Day of Resurrection, and the greatest sin in the sight of Allah is that of a lying tongue. The worst profit is that which is earned through interest, and the worst provision is that which is consumed wrongfully from the wealth of orphans. The best adornment for a man is righteous guidance with faith, through it he acquires control of his affair and ensures a good end [to his worldly life]. He who desires renown, Allah causes him to be disgraced, and whoever relies on this world is let down [and rendered unable to attain what he seeks]. Whoever understands [the reality of] trial remains patient when faced by it, but he who does not understand it recoils [from it]. Sin is disbelief, and whoever acts arrogantly is abased by Allah. Whoever obeys Satan disobeys Allah, and whoever disobeys Allah will be punished by Him. Whoever is grateful He grants him more.” Al-Qāsim said in his narration, “Whoever bears the calamity [that befalls him] patiently, Allah will restore him [to his previous position, or better than that], and whoever puts his trust in Allah, then Allah will suffice him. Do not anger Allah for the sake of pleasing anyone among His creation, and do not [attempt to] get close to anyone among the creatures by distancing yourself from Allah, for verily there is nothing between Allah and any of His creation by which He grants him some good or repels from him something evil except through obedience to Him. Indeed, obedience to Allah is a means of successfully attaining all the good that is sought and deliverance from every evil that is dreaded. Verily Allah protects the one who obeys Him and does not protect the one who disobeys Him; and the fugitive from Allah finds no place to [which he may] escape. Certainly, the decree of Allah will come to pass even if the creatures are averse to it, and everything that approaches is near. Whatever Allah wills happens, and whatever He does not will does not happen. Assist each other in virtue and Godwariness, and do not cooperate in sin and transgression; and be mindful of Allah, indeed Allah is severe in punishment.’”
