Al-Kafi 10309

Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from Muhammad Bin Saeed, from Zakariyya Bin Muhammad, from his father, from Amro, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far^asws having said: ‘Allah^azwj has Sword upon Himself^asws that he shall not sit upon the cushions of the Paradise, the one who allows others into his behind’. So I said to Abu Abdullah^asws, ‘So and so intellectual, one of understanding, is inviting people unto himself. Allah^azwj has Afflicted him’. So he^asws said: ‘Does he do that in the Masjid gathering?’ I said, ‘No’. He^asws said: ‘So, does he do it upon the door of his house?’ I said, ‘No’. He^asws said:’ So where does he do it?’ I said, ‘When he is alone’. He^asws said: ‘So Allah^azwj has not Afflicted him. This one is doing it for pleasure. He shall not sit upon the cushions of the Paradise’.
