إِنَّ رَجُلًا أَتَى رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّنِي نَافَقْتُ فَقَالَ وَ اللَّهِ مَا نَافَقْتَ وَ لَوْ نَافَقْتَ مَا أَتَيْتَنِي تُعْلِمُنِي مَا الَّذِي رَابَكَ أَظُنُّ الْعَدُوَّ الْحَاضِرَ أَتَاكَ فَقَالَ لَكَ مَنْ خَلَقَكَ فَقُلْتَ اللَّهُ خَلَقَنِي فَقَالَ لَكَ مَنْ خَلَقَ اللَّهَ قَالَ إِي وَ الَّذِي بَعَثَكَ بِالْحَقِّ لَكَانَ كَذَا فَقَالَ إِنَّ الشَّيْطَانَ أَتَاكُمْ مِنْ قِبَلِ الْأَعْمَالِ فَلَمْ يَقْوَ عَلَيْكُمْ فَأَتَاكُمْ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ لِكَيْ يَسْتَزِلَّكُمْ فَإِذَا كَانَ كَذَلِكَ فَلْيَذْكُرْ أَحَدُكُمُ اللَّهَ وَحْدَهُ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from Ismail Bin Muhammad, from Muhammad Bin Bakr Bin Janah, from Zakariyya Bin Muhammad, from Abu Al Yas’a Dawood Al Abzary, from Humran, (It has been narrated) from Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘A man came over to Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> and he said, ‘O Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup>! I have become a hypocrite’. So he<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘By Allah<sup>azwj</sup> you are not so; and had you been so, you would not have come to me to let me know what is that which has caused you to doubt. I<sup>saww</sup> think the present enemy (Satan<sup>la</sup>) came over to you and he<sup>la</sup> said to you, ‘Who Created you?’ So you said, ‘Allah<sup>azwj</sup>!’. So he<sup>la</sup> said to you, ‘Who Created Allah<sup>azwj</sup>!’’. He said, ‘Yes, by the One<sup>azwj</sup> Who Sent you with the Truth, it was such’. So he<sup>saww</sup> said: ‘The Satan<sup>la</sup> comes to you from the aspect of the deeds, but is not strong enough upon you, so he comes from this direction perhaps he<sup>la</sup> would make you waver. Therefore, whenever it was like that, so let one of you mentioned Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Alone’.
