Arabic text

1 - قال: أخبرني أبو القاسم جعفر بن محمد بن قولويه رحمه الله عن أبيه، عن سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى الأشعري، عن الحسن بن محبوب، عن هشام بن سالم، عن محمد بن مروان، عن أبي جعفر الباقر عليه السلام قال: سمعته يقول: ما اغرورقت عين بمائها من خشية الله عز وجل إلا حرم الله جسدها على النار، ولا فاضت دمعة على خد صاحبها فرهق وجهه قتر ولا ذلة يوم القيامة ، وما من شئ من أعمال الخير إلا وله وزن أو أجر إلا الدمعة من خشية الله، فإن الله يطفئ بالقطرة منها بحارا من نار يوم القيامة، وإن الباكي ليبكي من خشية الله في أمة فيرحم الله تلك الأمة ببكاء ذلك المؤمن فيها.

Translation

1. He said: Abul Qasim Ja’far ibn Muhammad ibn Qawlawayh - may Allah bless him with mercy, reported to me from his father, from Sa’d ibn Abdillah, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa al-Ashari, from al-Hasan ibn Mehboob, from Hisham ibn Salim, from Muhammad ibn Marwan, that: Abu Ja’far al-Baqir, peace be upon him, said: "There is no eye that gets filled with tears due to the fear of Allah, except that Allah saves its whole body from hell fire; and the cheeks upon which the tears stream down, shall have neither gloom nor disgrace overspreading the face; and every good deed has a fixed weight and reward, except the tears which flow due to the fear of Allah, for with every drop, Allah shall put out oceans of fire of the Day of Judgement. Surely, when one person among a group of Muslim people (i.e. Ummah) weeps with the fear of Allah, He blesses that whole Ummah with mercy because of that believer’s tears."
