Ḥusayn b. Saʿīd al-Ahwāzī · The Severity of a Believer’s Afflictions
12 - وعن أبي جعفر (ع) قال: قال الله تبارك وتعالى وعزَّتي، لا أُخرج لي عبداً من الدنيا أُريد رحمتَه إلاّ استوفَيتُ كلَّ سيئةٍ هي له، إما بالضّيق في رزقه أو ببلاءٍ في جسده وأما خَوف أُدخلُه عليه، فإن بقيَ عليه شئٌ شدّدتُ عليه الموتَ. وقال (ع): وقال الله وعِزّتي، لا أُخرج لي عبداً من الدنيا وأُريدُ عذابَه إلاّ استوفيتُه كلَّ حسنة له؛ إمّا بالسّعةِ في رزقه أو بالصّحةِ في جسده وإما بأمنٍ أُدخله عليه، فإن بقي عليه شئٌ هوَّنتُ عليه الموتَ.
12. It has been narrated that Abu Ja'far (al-Baqir) (a.s) said: Allah [M.G] has said: By My Honor! I do not take a servant of Mine from the world, if I intend mercy for him, until all his sins are removed—either by a straitening in his livelihood, by an affliction in his body or a fear that I cause him to experience. And if anything remains on him thereafter, I make his dying difficult. Abu Ja'far (a.s) also said: Allah has also said: By My Honor! If I intend to chastise a servant of Mine, I do not take him from the world until I compensate him fully for his good deeds—either by increasing his livelihood, by health in his body or by a sense of security that I cause him to experience. And if anything remains for him thereafter, I make his dying easy.
