hadith 1722

Zaris al-Kanasi narrated that he went to see Imam Baqir (a.s) with several other people including Hamran ibn Aein. Hamran said

“O' May I be your devoted servant! When we read the verse: “Whatever misfortune happens to you is because of the things your hands have wrought.” [The Holy Quran: Shura 42:30] does it mean that the misfortunes that happened to the Prophet (a.s) and Ameer al-Momineen (a.s) and the Holy Household were due to sins?” Imam Baqir (a.s) replied: “O' Hamran! Their misfortunes were not due to sins. But their misfortunes were so extensive that they will get rewarded for them.”

عن ضريس الكناسي قال

كنا عند أبي جعفر (عليه السلام) جماعة وفينا حمران بن أعين، فقال له حمران: جعلت فداك قول الله عز وجل: ﴿وما أصابكم من مصيبة فبما كسبت أيديكم﴾ أرأيت ما أصاب النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله) وأمير المؤمنين (عليه السلام) وأهل بيته من المصائب بذنب؟ فقال: يا حمران، أصابهم ما أصابهم من المصائب بغير ذنب، ولكن يطول عليهم بالمصائب ليأجرهم عليها من غير ذنب.

hadith 1728

Imam Sadiq (a.s) said the following regarding the following verse: “And were it not that (all) men might become of one (evil) way of life, we would provide for everyone that blasphemes against (God) Most Gracious, silver roofs for their houses, and silver stairways on which to go up.” [The Holy Quran: Zukhruf 43:33] “If God did this all the people would become infidels.”

عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام) في قوله تعالى: ﴿ولولا أن يكون الناس أمة واحدة لجعلنا لمن يكفر بالرحمن لبيوتهم سقفا من فضة...﴾ الآية فقال

أبو عبد الله (عليه السلام): لو فعل لكفر الناس جميعا.
