John Shaqi

سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) وَ هُوَ يَقُولُ كُلُّ قَلْبٍ فِيهِ شَكٌّ أَوْ شِرْكٌ فَهُوَ سَاقِطٌ وَ إِنَّمَا أَرَادُوا بِالزُّهْدِ فِي الدُّنْيَا لِتَفْرُغَ قُلُوبُهُمْ لِلْآخِرَةِ .


Translation

And by this chain, from Al Minqary, from Sufyan Bin Uyayna who said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> and he<sup>asws</sup> saying ‘Every heart wherein is a doubt or an association (Shirk), so it is fallen; and rather what is intended by the ascetism in the world is to free your hearts for the Hereafter’.
