3. It is narrated from him from Yahya ibn Ibrahim ibn abu al-Balad from ‘Asim ibn Humayd from abu Hamza al-Thumali from Ali ibn al-Husayn (a.s.) who has said the following
“Patience and satisfaction with Allah is the head of obedience to Allah. If one exercises patience and satisfaction with Allah in all the matters which he loves or dislikes, Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, will not make any decision in any of his affairs which he loves or dislikes but that the decisions are in his best interest.”
3ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ أَبِي الْبِلادِ عَنْ عَاصِمِ بْنِ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ الثُّمَالِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ (عَلَيهِما السَّلام) قَالَ
الصَّبْرُ وَالرِّضَا عَنِ الله رَأْسُ طَاعَةِ الله وَمَنْ صَبَرَ وَرَضِيَ عَنِ الله فِيمَا قَضَى عَلَيْهِ فِيمَا أَحَبَّ أَوْ كَرِهَ لَمْ يَقْضِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُ فِيمَا أَحَبَّ أَوْ كَرِهَ إِلا مَا هُوَ خَيْرٌ لَهُ.
