٣٨٧. وَقَالَ (عليه ‏السلام): مَا خَيْرٌ بِخَيْرٍ بَعْدَهُ النَّارُ، وَمَا شَرٌّ بِشَرٍّ بَعْدَهُ الْجَنَّةُ، وَكُلُّ نَعِيمٍ دُونَ الْجَنَّةِ فَهُوَ مَحْقُورٌ وَكُلُّ بَلاَءٍ دُونَ النَّارِ عَافِيَةٌ.


Translation

387. Amīr al-mu’minīn, peace be upon him, said: That good is no good after which there is the Fire, and that hardship is no hardship after which there is Paradise. Every bliss other than Paradise is inferior and every calamity other than the Fire is comfort.


Chapter (Bab)Paradise and Fire define true bliss and hardship
