Ḥadīth 1

أَبِی ره قَالَ سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْبَرْقِیِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِیٍّ الْکُوفِیِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ فُرَاتِ بْنِ الْأَحْنَفِ قَالَ قَالَ عَلِیُّ بْنُ الْحُسَیْنِ ع مَنْ بَاتَ شَبْعَانَ وَ بِحَضْرَتِهِ مُؤْمِنٌ جَائِعٌ طَاوٍ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ مَلَائِکَتِی أُشْهِدُکُمْ عَلَی هَذَا الْعَبْدِ أَنَّنِی أَمَرْتُهُ فَعَصَانِی وَ أَطَاعَ غَیْرِی وَ وَکَلْتُهُ إِلَی عَمَلِهِ وَ عِزَّتِی وَ جَلَالِی لَا غَفَرْتُ لَهُ أَبَداً.

1. Imam Zainul Abideen (a.s.) said, “One who sleeps after having his fill while there is a believer in his neighborhood who is hungry, Allah will say: O My angels! I hold you witness for this servant that I had ordered him but he did not follow it and obeyed other’s order. He relied upon someone other than Me in his deeds. I swear by My honor that I will never forgive him.”

Ḥadīth 2

وَ فِی رِوَایَهِ حَرِیزٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص مَا آمَنَ بِی مَنْ بَاتَ شَبْعَانَ وَ أَخُوهُ الْمُسْلِمُ طَاوٍ.

2. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) narrates that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.s.) said that the Almighty Allah said, “One who sleeps after having his fill while there is a hungry believer near him, the former has no faith on Me.”
