عَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ حَسَّانَ عَنْ أَبِي عَلِيٍّ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ لَا تَذْكُرُوا سِرَّنَا بِخِلَافِ عَلَانِيَتِنَا وَ لَا عَلَانِيَتَنَا بِخِلَافِ سِرِّنَا حَسْبُكُمْ أَنْ تَقُولُوا مَا نَقُولُ وَ تَصْمُتُوا عَمَّا نَصْمُتُ إِنَّكُمْ قَدْ رَأَيْتُمْ أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ لَمْ يَجْعَلْ لِأَحَدٍ مِنَ النَّاسِ فِي خِلَافِنَا خَيْراً إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ فَلْيَحْذَرِ الَّذِينَ يُخالِفُونَ عَنْ أَمْرِهِ أَنْ تُصِيبَهُمْ فِتْنَةٌ أَوْ يُصِيبَهُمْ عَذابٌ أَلِيمٌ .

Translation

51. From him, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Al-Hakam, from Hassaan, from Abu Ali who said: ‘I heard Abu Abdullah (asws) saying: ‘Do not mention our (asws) secrets opposite to what we (asws) say publicly, and do not publicise us (asws) opposite to our (asws) secrets. It suffices for you all that you should say what we (asws) say, and remain silent about what we have observed silence on. You have seen that Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic have never Kept any good for anyone from the people in opposition to us (asws). Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic Says: “[24:63] therefore let those beware who go against his order lest a trial afflict them or there befalls upon them a painful chastisement.”
