22-26 (The compiler of the book narrated) that his father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Sa’ed ibn Abdullah quoted Salamat ibn al-Khat’tab, on the authority of Ali ibn al-Hussein , on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad al-Mo’adab, on the authority of Asim ibn Hamid, on the authority of Khalid al-Qalanesi that Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB) said,

“When they bring an old man on the Resurrection Day for Reckoning, and hand him his Record of Deeds with the side of it showing his sins and evil deeds facing the people, time will pass very slowly for him. He will say, ‘O my Lord! Do you order that I be taken to Hell?’ God - may His Majesty be Exalted - says, ‘O old man! I feel too shy to punish you, since you prayed when you were living in the world. Take My servant to Paradise!’”
