Arabic text

7 - وبالإسناد الأول عن علي بن مهزيار [عن علي بن حديد]، عن علي بن النعمان، عن ابن مسكان، عن داود بن فرقد، عن أبي سعيد الزهري، عن أحدهما عليهما السلام إنه قال: ويل لقوم لا يدينون الله بالأمر بالمعروف والنهي عن المنكر، وقال: من قال: لا إله إلا الله فلن يلج ملكوت السماء حتى يتم قوله بعمل صالح، ولا دين [لمن دان الله بتقوية باطل، ولا دين] لمن دان الله بطاعة الظالم، ثم قال: وكل القوم ألهاهم التكاثر حتى زاروا المقابر .

Translation

7. And wilt the preceding chains of narration from ‘Ali ibn Mahzyar, from ‘Ali ibn Hadeed, from ‘Ali ibn al-Nu’man, from Ibn Maskan, from Dawood ibn Farqad, from Abu Saeed al-Zohari, from one the two (Imams), peace be upon them, who said: "Woe to the people who do not make it their habit to enjoy good and forbid evil." And then he said: "Whoever professes ’there is no God but Allah, his utterance does not enter the kingdom of Heaven, till it is supplemented by one good deed. And he who seeks to be godly while lending strength to the untruth, such a man has no religion. Similarly, he who is subservient to a tyrant, has no religion." Then he said: "Every community has been distracted by rivalry for worldly gain and abundance, till they visited the graves."
