Control your temptations
1 Ḥadīth

5 - قال: أخبرني أبو القاسم جعفر بن محمد رحمه الله عن أبيه، عن سعد بن عبد الله، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن علي بن أسباط، عن عمه يعقوب بن سالم، عن أبي الحسن العبدي، عن أبي عبد الله الصادق جعفر بن محمد عليهما السلام قال: ما كان عبد ليحبس نفسه على الله إلا أدخله الله الجنة. وصلى الله عليه سيدنا محمد النبي وآله وسلم.


5. He said: Abul Qasim Ja’far ibn Muhammad, may Allah bless him with mercy, reported to me from his father, from Sa’d ibn Abdillah, from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa, from ‘Ali ibn Asbat, from his uncle Yaqoob ibn Salim, from Abul Hasan al-Abdi, that: Abu Abdillah al-Sadiq Ja’far ibn Muhammad, peace be upon him, said: "A slave of Allah does not control his temptation for the sake of Allah, except that Allah rewards him by entering him into Paradise." And may Allah bless our master Muhammad, the Prophet and his progeny.
