27ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) أَنَّهُ قَالَ إِنَّ أَحَدَكُمْ لَيَكْثُرُ بِهِ الْخَوْفُ مِنَ السُّلْطَانِ وَمَا ذَلِكَ إِلا بِالذُّنُوبِ فَتَوَقَّوْهَا مَا اسْتَطَعْتُمْ وَلا تَمَادَوْا فِيهَا.
27. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ali ibn al-Hassan from Muhammad ibn al-Walid from Yunus ibn Ya’qub from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام who has said the following: “You may feel afraid of a king because of your disobeying him. You must avoid it if you can and do not continue in such condition.”
