سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ الْإِيمَانُ فَوْقَ الْإِسْلَامِ بِدَرَجَةٍ وَ التَّقْوَى فَوْقَ الْإِيمَانِ بِدَرَجَةٍ وَ الْيَقِينُ فَوْقَ التَّقْوَى بِدَرَجَةٍ وَ مَا قُسِمَ فِي النَّاسِ شَيْءٌ أَقَلُّ مِنَ الْيَقِينِ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, and Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Moalla Bin Muhammad, altogether from Al Washha, (It has been narrated) from Abu Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I heard him<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘The <span class="iTxt">Emān</span> is above the <span class="iTxt">Islām</span> by a level, and ‘التَّقْوَى’ the piety is above the <span class="iTxt">Emān</span> by a level, and ‘الْيَقِينَ’ the conviction is above ‘التَّقْوَى’ the piety by a level, and nothing has been distributed among the people as scarcely than ‘الْيَقِينَ’ the conviction’.
