Arabic text

140 - وَبِهذَا الإِسنادِ عَنْ عَلِىِّ بْنِ أَبِي طالِبٍ‏ عَلَيْهِالسَّلامُ قالَ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ يَقُولُ: إِنّي أَخافُ عَلَيْكُمُ استِخفافاً بِالدِّينِ وَبَيعَ الحُكمِ، وَقَطِيعَةَ الرَّحِمِ وَأَن تَتَّخِذُوا الْقُرْآنَ مَزامِيرَ وَتَقَدِّمونَ أَحَدَكُم وَلَيْسَ بِأَفضَلِكُمْ فِي الدِّين.

Translation

31-140 According to the same documentation, Ali ibn Abi Talib (a.s.) said, “I heard God’s Prophet (S) say: I am afraid that you will underestimate the religion, accept bribery when you are about to judge on a case, cut off ties with relatives, take the Qur’an as a musical instrument, and establish people as your prayer leaders who are not nobler than you in religion.”

Translation: Dr. Ali Peiravi — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
