The Matters in Which Allah Has Made a Covenant With Believing People in Exchange for Their Exercising Patience in Their Suffering
7ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْحَذَّاءِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَغِيرٍ عَنْ جَدِّهِ شُعَيْبٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ الدُّنْيَا سِجْنُ الْمُؤْمِنِ فَأَيُّ سِجْنٍ جَاءَ مِنْهُ خَيْرٌ.
7. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Muhammad ibn Ali from Ibrahim al-Hadhdha’ from Muhammad ibn Saghir from his grandfather, Shu’ayb who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام saying, ‘This world is a prison for believing people. Which prison is it wherein anything good may exist?”
