ابن أبي عمير عن جميل عن بكير عن أحدهما عليهم السلام قال: إن آدم عليه السلام قال: يا رب سلطت على الشيطان وأجريته منى مجرى الدم فاجعل لي شيئا فقال: يا آدم جعلت لك ان من هم من ذريتك بسيئة لم تكتب عليه فان عملها كتبت عليه سيئة ومن هم منهم بحسنة فإن لم يعملها كتبت له حسنة وان هو عملها كتبت له عشرا قال: يا رب زدني قال: جعلت لك ان من عمل منهم سيئة ثم استغفر غفرت له قال: يا رب زدني قال: جعلت لهم التوبة أو قال بسطت لهم التوبة حتى تبلغ النفس هذه قال يا رب حسبي.
17.Ibn Abī ʿUmayr narrated from Jamīl, from Bukayr, from one of the two [Imams] (a) who said, “Verily Ādam (a) said, ‘O Lord, You allowed Shayṭān to prevail over me and You made him flow in me like blood [flowing in my veins], so grant me something [to counter him].’ So He said, ‘O Ādam, I have [hereby] granted you that whoever among your progeny intends [to do] an evil deed, it will not be recorded against him, and if he does it, one evil deed will be recorded against him. And whoever among them intends to do a good deed but does not do it, one good deed is recorded for him, and if he does it then ten good deeds are recorded for him [for that one act].’ He said, ‘O Lord, give me something more!’ He said, ‘I have [hereby] granted you that whoever among them and then seeks forgiveness [for it], I shall forgive him.’ He said, ‘O Lord, give me something more!’ He said, ‘I have granted them repentance.’ [Or He said, ‘I have granted them the opportunity to repent until the soul reaches here (the throat)’.] He said, ‘O Lord, that is sufficient for me.’”
