37. Abu 'Abd Allah (a.s) narrated that the
Prophet (a.s) said: Allah [M.G] has said: Amongst My believing servants there are those whose religious affairs are not set right except by wealth, affluence and health; so, I give them these as their lot that the affairs of their religion may be set right.And amongst the servants there are those whose religious affairs are not set right except by hunger, poverty and disease; so, I afflict them with hunger, poverty and disease so that the affairs of their religion may be set right for them.
37 - وعن أبي عبد الله (ع) قال
قال النبي (ص): قال الله (جلّ جلاله) إنّ مِن عبادي المؤمنين لَعباداً لا يصلُح لهم أمرُ دينِهم إلاّ بالغِنى والسّعةِ والصّحة في البدن؛ فأَبلوهُم بالغنى والسّعة والصّحّة في البدن فيصلُح لهم أمرُ دينهم. وقال: إنّ من العباد لَعباداً لا يصلُح لهم أمرُ دينهم الاّ بالفاقةِ والمَسكنةِ والسقم في أبدانهم، فَأبلوهم بالفَقر والفاقة والمسكنةِ والسقم في أبدانهم فيصلح لهم عليه أمرُ دينِهم.
