Imam Sadiq (a.s) narrated that his grandfather (a.s) quoted on the authority of God's Prophet (a.s)
“If sin was not better than conceit for a believer, God would have never let His believing servants commit any sins.”
عن الصادق عن آبائه (عليه السلام) قال
قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): لولا أن الذنب خير للمؤمن من العجب ما خلى الله عز وجل بين عبده المؤمن وبين ذنب أبدا.
