هِ قَبٌّ قَدْ رَقَعَهُ فَجَعَلَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) مَا لَكَ تَنْظُرُ فَقَالَ لَهُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ قَبٌّ يُلْقَى فِي قَمِيصِكَ فَقَالَ لَهُ اضْرِبْ يَدَكَ إِلَى هَذَا الْكِتَابِ فَاقْرَأْ مَا فِيهِ وَ كَانَ بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ كِتَابٌ أَوْ قَرِيبٌ مِنْهُ فَنَظَرَ الرَّجُلُ فِيهِ فَإِذَا فِيهِ لَا إِيمَانَ لِمَنْ لَا حَيَاءَ لَهُ وَ لَا مَالَ لِمَنْ لَا تَقْدِيرَ لَهُ وَ لَا جَدِيدَ لِمَنْ لَا خَلَقَ لَهُ .
Translation
Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Muhammad Bin Isa Bin Ubeyd, form Al Hassan Bin Ali Bin Yaqteen, from Al Fazl Bin Kaseer Al Madainy, from the one who mentioned it, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, one of his<sup>asws</sup> companions had come over to him<sup>asws</sup>, so he saw a shirt to be upon him<sup>asws</sup> wherein was a cut which had been patched over. So he went on looking at it, so Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said to him: ‘What is the matter with you, looking?’ May I be sacrificed for you<sup>asws</sup>! There is a patch attached in your<sup>asws</sup> shirt’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said to him: ‘Extend your hand to this book and read what is in it’, and the book was in front of him, or near to him. So the man looked into it, and there was (written) in it: ‘There is no faith for the one who has no shame for him, and there is no wealth for the one who has no management for him, and there is nothing new for the one who has nothing old for him’.
