12.Fuḍayl ibn ʿUthmān narrated from Abū ʿUbaydah al-Ḥadhdhāʾ who said,

“I told Abū Jaʿfar, ‘May I be made your ransom! Pray to Allah for me, for verily I have [committed] many sins.’ So he said, ‘Stop, O Abā ʿUbaydah! Let Satan not be a helper of your base-self. Verily the pardon [and forgiveness] of Allah cannot be compared to anything.’”
