4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ دَاوُدَ الْمِنْقَرِيِّ عَنْ حَفْصِ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ كَمْ مِنْ مَغْرُورٍ بِمَا قَدْ أَنْعَمَ الله عَلَيْهِ وَكَمْ مِنْ مُسْتَدْرَجٍ بِسَتْرِ الله عَلَيْهِ وَكَمْ مِنْ مَفْتُونٍ بِثَنَاءِ النَّاسِ عَلَيْهِ.
4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad from Sulayman (ibn Dawud) al-Minqari from Hafs ibn Ghiyath from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام who has said the following: “How many are those who suffer losses due to the bounties that Allah grant them! How many are those who gradually move to destruction due to Allah’s covering their sins! How many are of the people misled due to other’s prais and applause for them!”’
