قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ إِنَّ مِنْ أَغْبَطِ أَوْلِيَائِي عِنْدِي عَبْداً مُؤْمِناً ذَا حَظٍّ مِنْ صَلَاحٍ أَحْسَنَ عِبَادَةَ رَبِّهِ وَ عَبَدَ اللَّهَ فِي السَّرِيرَةِ وَ كَانَ غَامِضاً فِي النَّاسِ فَلَمْ يُشَرْ إِلَيْهِ بِالْأَصَابِعِ وَ كَانَ رِزْقُهُ كَفَافاً فَصَبَرَ عَلَيْهِ فَعَجَّلَتْ بِهِ الْمَنِيَّةُ فَقَلَّ تُرَاثُهُ وَ قَلَّتْ بَوَاكِيهِ .


Translation

Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Ahmad Bin Is’haq, from Bakr Bin Muhammad Al Azdy, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup style="font-weight: normal">asws</sup> having said: ‘Rasool-Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">saww</sup> said: ‘Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic Said: “The most blissful of My<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> friends in My<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> Presence is a believing servant with a share from righteousness, good worship of his Lord<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup>, and he worships Allah<sup style="font-weight: normal">azwj</sup> in the secrecy, and he was hidden among the people, so he was not pointed at by the fingers, and his sustenance was at subsistence level. So he was patient upon it, and the death hastened to him, and few were his inheritors, and few were his mourners’.
