20ـ عن أبي بصيرٍ : دَخَلتُ على أبي عبدِ اللّهِ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) ومَعي رجُلٌ مِن أصْحابِنا ، فقُلتُ لَهُ : جُعِلتُ فِداكَ يابنَ رسولِ اللّهِ ، إنّي لَأغْتَمُّ وأحْزَنُ مِن غَيرِ أنْ أعْرِفَ لِذلكَ سَبباً، فقالَ أبو عبدِ اللّهِ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إنَّ ذلكَ الحُزنَ والفَرحَ يَصِلُ إلَيكُم مِنّا؛ لأنّا إذا دَخلَ علَينا حُزنٌ أو سُرورٌ كانَ ذلكَ داخِلاً علَيكُم ، لأ نّا وإيّاكُم مِن نُورِ اللّهِ عزّوجلّ . |
| 20- Abu Basir narrated, ‘I once went to visit Abu `Abdillah [al-Sadiq] (AS) along with one of our companions. I said to him, ‘O son of the Prophet! Could I but sacrifice myself for you. I grieve and become sorrowful without knowing the cause of that.’ So Abu `Abdillah (AS) replied, ‘Truly that sorrow and joy reaches you from us, for when sorrow or joy comes to us it comes to you too, for indeed we and you are all from the Light of Allah, Mighty and Exalted.’[`Alal al-Shara’i`a, p. 93, no. 2] |

21ـ رُوي أنَّه سئلَ العالِمُ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) عنِ الرّجُلِ يُصْبِحُ مَغْموماً لا يَدْري سَببَ غَمِّهِ ، فقالَ : إذا أصابَهُ ذلكَ فلْيَعْلَمْ أنَّ أخاهُ مَغْمومٌ ، وكذلكَ إذا أصْبَحَ فَرْحانَ لغَيرِ سَببٍ يُوجِبُ الفَرَحَ ، فباللّهِ نَسْتَعينُ على حُقوقِ الإخْوانِ. |
| 21- It is narrated in Bihar al-Anwar that the scholar [al-Sadiq] (AS) was once asked about why a man may wake up in the morning feeling sad without knowing the reason for his sorrow. He said, ‘If that happens to him then he should know that his brother is in sorrow, and similarly if he wakes up happy without a specific reason for that joy. And Allah’s help do we seek with regard to the rights of the brothers.’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 74, p. 227, no. 20] |
