عليّ بن النعمان عن جابر، عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله: إن الله رفيق يعطي الثواب ويحبّ كلّ رفيق، ويعطي على الرفق ما لا يعطي على العنف.

Translation

12.ʿAlī ibn al-Nuʿmān narrated from Jābir, from Abū Jaʿfar (a) who said, “The Messenger of Allah (ṣ) said, ‘Verily Allah is kind, He grants [abundant] reward [to the virtuous] and He loves every kind [and gentle] person. He grants for gentleness that which He does not grant for [anything which involves] harshness.’”[1]
