You heard such and such facts from so and so, you narrated it against his interests and transmitted it until it reached so and so tyrant, who murdered him on the basis of the narration, and this is your share of that blood.’”

It then became murder, transgression and disobedience.’”

Whoever holds fast to the firm ring, is saved.’ I (the narrator) then asked, ‘What is it (the ring)?’ The Imam said, ‘It is submission (to the commands of ‘ A’immah , and acceptance of the same).”’

11ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ أَبِي حَمَّادٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْكُوفِيِّينَ عَنْ أَبِي خَالِدٍ الْكَابُلِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ جَعَلَ الدِّينَ دَوْلَتَيْنِ دَوْلَةَ آدَمَ وَهِيَ دَوْلَةُ الله وَدَوْلَةَ إِبْلِيسَ فَإِذَا أَرَادَ الله أَنْ يُعْبَدَ عَلانِيَةً كَانَتْ دَوْلَةُ آدَمَ وَإِذَا أَرَادَ الله أَنْ يُعْبَدَ فِي السِّرِّ كَانَتْ دَوْلَةُ إِبْلِيسَ وَالْمُذِيعُ لِمَا أَرَادَ الله سَتْرَهُ مَارِقٌ مِنَ الدِّينِ.

11. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Salih ibn abu Hammad from a man of the people of Kufah from abu Khalid al-Kabuli from abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, has made religion into two kingdoms; the kingdom of Adam, which is the kingdom of Allah, and the kingdom of Satan. When Allah wants to be worshipped publicly such time is the time of the kingdom of Adam. When Allah wants to be worshipped in hiding and secretly, such time is the time of the kingdom of Satan. The publisher of what Allah wants to remain secret is out of the limits and sanctuary of religion.”
