حَدَّثَنِی جَعْفَرُ بْنُ عَلِیِّ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ الْکُوفِیُّ عَنْ جَدِّهِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِیِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْمُغِیرَهِ عَنِ السَّکُونِیِّ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِیهِ عَنْ آبَائِهِ عَنْ أَمِیرِ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص طُوبَی لِمَنْ تَرَکَ شَهْوَهً حَاضِرَهً لِمَوْعُودٍ لَمْ یَرَهُ.
