Shaykh Muḥammad b. Yaʿqūb al-Kulaynī · Commanding others what is Obligatory and to Prohibit them from doing Evil
8- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنِ النَّضْرِ بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ عَنْ دُرُسْتَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بَعَثَ مَلَكَيْنِ إِلَى أَهْلِ مَدِينَةٍ لِيَقْلِبَاهَا عَلَى أَهْلِهَا فَلَمَّا انْتَهَيَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ وَجَدَا رَجُلا يَدْعُو اللهَ وَيَتَضَرَّعُ فَقَالَ أَحَدُ الْمَلَكَيْنِ لِصَاحِبِهِ أَمَا تَرَى هَذَا الدَّاعِيَ فَقَالَ قَدْ رَأَيْتُهُ وَلَكِنْ أَمْضِي لِمَا أَمَرَ بِهِ رَبِّي فَقَالَ لا وَلَكِنْ لا أُحْدِثُ شَيْئاً حَتَّى أُرَاجِعَ رَبِّي فَعَادَ إِلَى اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فَقَالَ يَا رَبِّ إِنِّي انْتَهَيْتُ إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ فَوَجَدْتُ عَبْدَكَ فُلاناً يَدْعُوكَ وَيَتَضَرَّعُ إِلَيْكَ فَقَالَ امْضِ بِمَا أَمَرْتُكَ بِهِ فَإِنَّ ذَا رَجُلٌ لَمْ يَتَمَعَّرْ وَجْهُهُ غَيْظاً لِي قَطُّ.
8. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from al-Husayn ibn Ishaq from Ali ibn Mahziyar from al-Nadr ibn al-Suwayd from Durust ibn abu Mansur from certain individuals of his people who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, once sent two angels to a city to turn it upside down on the people therein. When they came to the city, they found a man praying to Allah with great concern and desperation. One of the angels then asked the other, ‘Do you see this person praying ? 5 The other angel replied, ‘Yes, I have seen him but I must obey the command which my Lord has issued . 5 The other angel said, ‘No, I will not do anything before asking my Lord about it . 5 This angel returned to the presence of Allah, the most Blessed, the most High, and said, ‘O Lord, I went to the city and found there one of Your servants, so and so praying to You and asking You in desperation and in a helpless condition . 5 The Lord said, ‘You must do as you were commanded to do; he is a man who has never even frowned for My sake as an expression of his anger against evil deeds . 55
