Shaykh Muḥammad b. ʿAlī al-Ṣaduq · Divine favor and spiritual distinction of the faithful
حدّثني محمّد بن عليّ ماجيلويه، عن عمّه محمّد بن أبي القاسم بإسناد يرفعه، عن عمر بن أبان الكلبي قال: قال أبو عبد الله عليه السلام: ما أكثر السواد؟ قال: قلت له: أجل يا بن رسول الله ما أكثر السواد؟ فقال: أما والله ما يحجّ الله عزّ وجلّ غيركم ولا يصلّي الصلاتين غيركم، ولا يؤتى أجره مرّتين غيركم، وإنّكم لرعاة الشمس والقمر والنجوم، ولكم يغفر، ومنكم يتقبّل.
Mohammed bin Ali bin Majilwayh narrated to me from his uncle Mohammed bin al-Qasim… from Omar bin Eban al-Kelbi that Abu Abdullah (a) said to him: "How numerous the human beings are!" I said: "Yes, son of Allah’s Messenger. How numerous the human beings are!" He said: "By Allah I swear, no one performs the hajj for the sake of Allah, Powerful and Majestic is He, except you, no one offers the two prayers except you, and no one will be rewarded two-fold except you. You are certainly the guardians of the sun, the moon, and the stars. Your sins will be forgiven and your deeds will be accepted."
