Reward of being patient
2 Aḥadīth

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِیٍّ مَاجِیلَوَیْهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ حَسَّانَ الرَّازِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی مُحَمَّدٍ الرَّازِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی الْمَغْرَاءِ عَنْ أَبِی بَصِیرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا جَعْفَرٍ ع یَقُولُ إِنِّی لَأَصْبِرُ مِنْ غُلَامِی هَذَا وَ مِنْ أَهْلِی عَلَی مَا هُوَ أَمَرُّ مِنَ الْحَنْظَلِ إِنَّهُ مَنْ صَبَرَ نَالَ بِصَبْرِهِ دَرَجَهَ الصَّائِمِ الْقَائِمِ وَ دَرَجَهَ الشَّهِیدِ الَّذِی قَدْ ضَرَبَ بِسَیْفِهِ قُدَّامَ مُحَمَّدٍ ص.


1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s) narrates that Imam Muhammad Baqir (a.s) said, “I am bearing patiently the bitter behavior of this servant and my family regarding the matter of Hanzal. One who is patient, is like one who stays up at night for prayers, observes fast and one who is martyred while fighting alongside Muhammad (s.a.w.s.).

حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ زَیْدٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِیمَ بْنِ أَبِی بَکْرٍ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ أَبِی حَمْزَهَ الثُّمَالِیِّ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ الْبَاقِرِ ع قَالَ: مَنْ صَبَرَ عَلَی مُصِیبَهٍ زَادَهُ اللَّهُ عِزّاً عَلَی عِزِّهِ وَ أَدْخَلَهُ جَنَّتَهُ مَعَ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ أَهْلِ بَیْتِهِ.


2. It was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Hassan who said it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. al-Qasim from Ahmad b. Abi Abdillah from al-Hussain b. al-Hassan b. Zayd from Ibrahim b. Abi Bakr from ’Asim from Abi Hamzah al-Thumali from Abi Ja’far al-Baqir (a.s) who said: “One who remains patient on a calamity, Allah will increase his honor and make him enter Paradise along with the Holy Prophet and his Ahle Bayt (a.s).
