17ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنِ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ شَعِرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ الْمُنْذِرِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَتِيهُ إِلا مِنْ ذِلَّةٍ يَجِدُهَا فِي نَفْسِهِ وَفِي حَدِيثٍ آخَرَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَا مِنْ رَجُلٍ تَكَبَّرَ أَوْ تَجَبَّرَ إِلا لِذِلَّةٍ وَجَدَهَا فِي نَفْسِهِ.
17. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from certain individuals of his people from al-Nahdi from Yazid ibn Ishaq Sha’ar from ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Mudar from ‘Abd Allah ibn Bukayr who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام has said, ‘No one expresses arrogance but because of lowliness that he feels in his soul.’ In another Hadith Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام has said, ‘There is no man who expresses arrogance or tyranny but because of lowliness that he feels in his soul.”
