عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ السِّنْدِيِّ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ عَنْ عَنْبَسَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ خَالِطُوا النَّاسَ فَإِنَّهُ إِنْ لَمْ يَنْفَعْكُمْ حُبُّ عَلِيٍّ وَ فَاطِمَةَ (عليها السلام) فِي السِّرِّ لَمْ يَنْفَعْكُمْ فِي الْعَلَانِيَةِ.

Translation

155. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Saleh Bin Al-Sindy, from Ja’far Bin Basheer, from Anbasat, who has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah (asws), said, ‘I hear him (asws) saying: ‘Intermingle with the people, for if the love for Ali (asws) and Fatima (sa) does not benefit you in the privacy, it will not benefit you publicly’.
