۞
The Prophet (a.s) said: “One of the things that people have learned from the early Prophets' words is that you can do anything you wish if you have no shame.” Abu al-Tay'yeb said: “This does not mean that you are free to do whatever you wish. But it is a threat and implies that you should be pious. Do whatever you want to do, but you will soon be punished in the Hereafter.”
عن النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله)
أنه قال: إن مما أدرك الناس من كلام النبوة الأولى إذا لم تستح فاصنع ما شئت. قال أبو الطيب: هذا من قول النبي (صلى الله عليه وآله)، ليس على الإباحة فإنما معناه التهديد والوعيد، أي: اصنع ما شئت فسوف تجازى عليه.
