٤ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي أَيُّوبَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا تُوبُوا إِلَى الله تَوْبَةً نَصُوحاً قَالَ هُوَ الذَّنْبُ الَّذِي لا يَعُودُ فِيهِ أَبَداً قُلْتُ وَأَيُّنَا لَمْ يَعُدْ فَقَالَ يَا أَبَا مُحَمَّدٍ إِنَّ الله يُحِبُّ مِنْ عِبَادِهِ الْمُفَتَّنَ التَّوَّابَ.
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from abu Ayyub from abu Basir who has said the following: “Once I asked Abu ‘Abdillah  about the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, ‘Believers, turn to Allah in repentance, “In a Nasuh manner,” with the intention of never repeating the same sin.’ (66:8) The Imam said, ‘It is the sin that one never repeats.’ I then asked, ‘Who among us does not repeat?’ The Imam said, ‘O abu Muhammad, of His servants Allah loves those who are put to trial and the ones who repent very often.’”
