hadith 1814
In Al-Mahasin it is narrated that the
Almighty God said: “Some of My believing servants ask Me to help them succeed in worshipping Me. But since I love them I do not help them succeed, so that they do not get conceited.”
من كتاب المحاسن: قال الله تبارك وتعالى: إن من عبادي المؤمنين لمن يسألني الشئ من طاعتي فاحبه فأصرف ذلك عنه لكي لا يعجبه عمله.

hadith 1816
Imam Baqir (a.s) narrated in a tradition that God the Almighty said
“Some believers ask Me for help to succeed in God's worship, but I do not make them succeed since that might make them conceited. Some believers are such that they will only improve in poverty, and I fear that they will be ruined if I make them affluent.”
في رواية عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) قال
قال الله عز وجل: إن من عبادي المؤمنين لمن يسألني الشئ من العبادة فأصرفه عنه مخافة الإعجاب بنفسه، وإن من عبادي المؤمنين لمن لا يصلحه إلا الفقر ولو صرفته إلى الغنى لهلك.
