إِنَّا صُبُرٌ وَ شِيعَتُنَا أَصْبَرُ مِنَّا قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ كَيْفَ صَارَ شِيعَتُكُمْ أَصْبَرَ مِنْكُمْ قَالَ لِأَنَّا نَصْبِرُ عَلَى مَا نَعْلَمُ وَ شِيعَتُنَا يَصْبِرُونَ عَلَى مَا لَا يَعْلَمُونَ .
Translation
Abu Ali Ashary, from Moalla Bin Muhammad, from Al Washa, from one of his companions, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘We<sup>asws</sup> are patient, and our<sup>asws</sup> Shia are more patient than us<sup>asws</sup>’. I said, ‘May I be sacrificed for you<sup>asws</sup>! How did your<sup>asws</sup> Shia come to be more patient than you<sup>asws</sup>?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Because we<sup>asws</sup> are patient upon what we<sup>asws</sup> know, and our<sup>asws</sup> Shiah are being patient upon what they are not (even) knowing’.
