جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَشَكَا إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَقَارِبَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ اكْظِمْ غَيْظَكَ وَ افْعَلْ فَقَالَ إِنَّهُمْ يَفْعَلُونَ وَ يَفْعَلُونَ فَقَالَ أَ تُرِيدُ أَنْ تَكُونَ مِثْلَهُمْ فَلَا يَنْظُرَ اللَّهُ إِلَيْكُمْ .
Translation
Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Salih Bin Al Sindy, from Ja’far Bin Bashir, from Anbasa Al Aabid who said, ‘A man came over and he complained to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about his relatives. So he<sup>asws</sup> said to him: ‘Suppress your anger and do (maintain relationships)’. So he said, ‘They are doing and doing (bad things)’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Do you want to become similar to them, so that Allah<sup>azwj</sup> would not Look at you?’
