سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ نَفَسُ الْمَهْمُومِ لَنَا الْمُغْتَمِّ لِظُلْمِنَا تَسْبِيحٌ وَ هَمُّهُ لِأَمْرِنَا عِبَادَةٌ وَ كِتْمَانُهُ لِسِرِّنَا جِهَادٌ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ قَالَ لِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ اكْتُبْ هَذَا بِالذَّهَبِ فَمَا كَتَبْتَ شَيْئاً أَحْسَنَ مِنْهُ .


Translation

Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, and Muhammad Bin Yahya, altogether from Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Sa’ad, from Muhammad Bin Muslim, from Muhammad Bin Saeed Bin Gazwan, from Ali Bin Al Hakam, from Umar Bin Aban, from Isa Bin Abu Mansour who said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘A concerned sigh for us<sup>asws</sup> due the grief for the injustices upon us<sup>asws</sup>, is a Glorification, and thinking of our<sup>asws</sup> matter is a worship, and concealment of our<sup>asws</sup> secrets is <span class="iTxt">Jihād</span> in the Way of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>’. Muhammad Bin Saeed said to me, ‘Write this in gold, for you will not be writing anything more excellent than it’.
