10ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ ثَلاثٌ لا يَزِيدُ الله بِهِنَّ الْمَرْءَ الْمُسْلِمَ إِلا عِزّاً الصَّفْحُ عَمَّنْ ظَلَمَهُ وَإِعْطَاءُ مَنْ حَرَمَهُ وَالصِّلَةُ لِمَنْ قَطَعَهُ.
10. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Yunus from ‘Amr ibn Shamir from Jabir from abu Ja’far عليه السلام who has said the following: “Abu Ja’far عليه السلام has said, ‘There are three qualities with which Allah increases the respect of a Muslim: To be lenient to those who do injustice to him, to give to those who deprive him and to establish relations with those who neglect him.’”
