Arabic text

علي بن المغيرة عن ابن مسكان عن أبي عبيدة الحذاء قال: سمعت أبا جعفر عليه السلام يقول: الله افرح بتوبة عبده حين يتوب عن رجل ظلت راحلته في ارض قفراء وعليها طعامه وشرابه فبينما هو كذلك لا يدرى ما يصنع ولا أين يتوجه حتى وضع رأسه لينام فاتاه آت فقال: يا هذا هل لك في راحلتك؟ قال: نعم قال: هو ضده

Translation

10.ʿAlī ibn al-Mughīrah narrated from Ibn Muskān, from Abū ʿUbaydah al-Ḥadhdhāʾ who said, “I heard Abā Jaʿfar (a) say, ‘Allah is more pleased with the repentance of a servant when he repents than the man whose mount, that was carrying [all] his food and drink, gets lost in the wilderness. Then, as he is in that state [of perplexity] not knowing what to do or where to turn, he places his head down to sleep when suddenly a person approaches him and says, “O man, have you lost your mount?” He replies, “Yes.” He says, “Here it is.”’”

Translation: Shaykh Tahir Ridha Jaffer — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
