أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ یَعْقُوبَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنِ ابْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ ملک [مَالِکِ] بْنِ حصن [حُصَیْنٍ] السَّکُونِیِّ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَا مِنْ عَبْدٍ یَسْأَلُ مِنْ غَیْرِ حَاجَهٍ فَیَمُوتُ حَتَّی یُحْوِجَهُ اللَّهُ إِلَیْهَا وَ یُثَبِّتَ لَهُ بِهَا النَّارَ.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) said, “One who asks for a thing which he does not need, will not die till he is deprived of it and Allah will throw him in Hell because of this deed.”
