قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) أَوْعَدَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ فِي مَالِ الْيَتِيمِ بِعُقُوبَتَيْنِ إِحْدَاهُمَا عُقُوبَةُ الْآخِرَةِ النَّارُ وَ أَمَّا عُقُوبَةُ الدُّنْيَا فَقَوْلُهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ لْيَخْشَ الَّذِينَ لَوْ تَرَكُوا مِنْ خَلْفِهِمْ ذُرِّيَّةً ضِعافاً خافُوا عَلَيْهِمْ الْآيَةَ يَعْنِي لِيَخْشَ أَنْ أَخْلُفَهُ فِي ذُرِّيَّتِهِ كَمَا صَنَعَ بِهَؤُلَاءِ الْيَتَامَى .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from Usman Bin Is, from Sama’at who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Allah<sup>azwj</sup> Mighty and Majestic has Prepared with regards to the wealth of the orphans, two Punishments, one of the two being the Fire in the Hereafter; and as for the Punishment in the world, so these are the Words of the Mighty and Majestic <span class="ibTxt"><a href="/#/books/quran:4#h9"><a href="/books/quran:4#h9">[4:9]</a></a> And let those fear who, should they leave behind them weakly offspring, would fear on their account</span> – the Verse; Meaning, let him fear that if he leaves behind his offspring they would be treated by them like the orphans’.
