38- حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى وَ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ يَزِيدَ جَمِيعاً عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَنْصُورٍ عَنْ رَجُلٍ وَ اسْمُهُ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ قَالَ: إِذَا أَصْبَحْتَ وَ أَمْسَيْتَ لَا تَرَى إِمَاماً تَأْتَمُّ بِهِ فَأَحْبِبْ مَنْ كُنْتَ تُحِبُّ وَ أَبْغِضْ مَنْ كُنْتَ تُبْغِضُ حَتَّى يُظْهِرَهُ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ.
38 -Narrated to us my father (r.a.): Narrated to us Saad bin Abdullah from Ahmad bin Muhammad bin Isa and Yaqoob bin Yazid, all of them from Hasan bin Ali bin Faddal from Ja’far bin Muhammad bin Mansur from a man - and his name was Umar bin Abdul Aziz from Abi Abdullah that he said:
“When days and nights pass in such a condition that you are unable to see the Imam whom you can follow, you must continue to love what you love and continue to hate what you hate till Allah, the Mighty and Sublime brings him out.”
