22-21 Muhammad ibn al-Hassan ibn Ahmad ibn al-Walid - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn al-Hassan al-Saffar quoted Ibrahim ibn Hashim, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Ali al-Muqar’ri, on the authority of Yahya ibn al-Mobarak, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Jabal’le, on the authority of Ishaq ibn Ammar, on the authority of Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB), on the authority of his father (MGB), on the authority of his forefathers (MGB), on the authority of Ali (MGB) that God’s Prophet (MGB) said,

“God will protect anyone who attains the age of forty from insanity, vitiligo and leprosy. God will ease the Reckoning of anyone who reaches the age of fifty. God will grant anyone who reaches the age of sixty opportunity to repent. God and the companions of the heavens love anyone who reaches the age of seventy. God will order the good deeds to be recorded, and the bad deeds to be eliminated for anyone who reaches the age of eighty. Whenever a man reaches the age of ninety, God will forgive all his past and future sins. He will be considered to be one of the slaves of God on Earth.”
