٢٨ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَمَّنْ رَوَاهُ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ لَيَكْرُمُ عَلَى الله حَتَّى لَوْ سَأَلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ بِمَا فِيهَا أَعْطَاهُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْتَقِصَ مِنْ مُلْكِهِ شَيْئاً وَإِنَّ الْكَافِرَ لَيَهُونُ عَلَى الله حَتَّى لَوْ سَأَلَهُ الدُّنْيَا بِمَا فِيهَا أَعْطَاهُ ذَلِكَ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يَنْتَقِصَ مِنْ مُلْكِهِ شَيْئاً وَإِنَّ الله لَيَتَعَاهَدُ عَبْدَهُ الْمُؤْمِنَ بِالْبَلاءِ كَمَا يَتَعَاهَدُ الْغَائِبُ أَهْلَهُ بِالطُّرَفِ وَإِنَّهُ لَيَحْمِيهِ الدُّنْيَا كَمَا يَحْمِي الطَّبِيبُ الْمَرِيضَ.
28. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from his narrators, from al-Halabi from Abu ‘Abdillah  who has said the following: “A believer is so important to Allah that if he asks Him paradise and all that is therein. He will give it to him without any shortages caused to His kingdom. The unbeliever is so insignificant before Allah that if he asks the whole world and all that is therein. He will give it to him without any shortages caused in His kingdom. Allah is committed to sending misfortune to the believers just like one’s commitment to his family in sending them souvenirs during his absence from home. He holds him back from worldly things like the physician who holds back a patient from certain food items.”
