14 - حدثنا محمد بن موسى بن المتوكل (رحمه الله)، قال: حدثنا محمد بن أبي عبد الله الكوفي، عن موسى بن عمران النخعي، عن عمه الحسين بن يزيد، عن الحسن بن علي بن أبي حمزة، عن أبيه، عن يحيى بن أبي القاسم، عن الصادق جعفر ابن محمد، عن أبيه، عن جده (عليهم السلام)، قال: كتب رجل إلى الحسين بن علي (عليه السلام): يا سيدي، أخبرني بخير الدنيا والآخرة. فكتب إليه: بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم، أما بعد فإنه من طلب رضا الله بسخط الناس كفاه الله أمور الناس، ومن طلب رضا الناس بسخط الله وكله الله إلى الناس، والسلام (4).
Muhammad b. Musa b. al-Mutawakkil (rh) narrated to us. He said: Muhammad b. Abi `Abdullah al-Kufi narrated to us from Musa b. `Imran al-Nakha`I from his uncle al-Husayn b. Yazid from al-Hasan b. `Ali b. Abi Hamza from his father from Yahya b. Abi’l Qasim from al-Sadiq Ja`far b. Muhammad from his father from his grandfather (as). He said: A man wrote to al-Husayn b. `Ali (as): “O my Master! Inform me of the best of this world and the Hereafter.” So, he wrote to him: “In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful. As for what comes after: whoever seeks the pleasure of Allah despite the discontent of the people, Allah will suffice him in the affairs of the people. Whoever seeks the pleasure of the people despite the discontent of Allah, Allah will entrust him to the people. Peace.”
