6ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ مِهْرَانَ عَنْ سَيْفِ بْنِ عَمِيرَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَنْ سَمِعَ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ مَنْ كَظَمَ غَيْظاً وَلَوْ شَاءَ أَنْ يُمْضِيَهُ أَمْضَاهُ أَمْلأ الله قَلْبَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ رِضَاهُ.
6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from Isma’il ibn Mehran ibn Sayf ibn ‘Amirah who has said that spoke to him one who had heard from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام has said, ‘Whoever suppressess his anger that he could let out if he wanted, Allah, on the Day of Judgment, will fill his heart with His happiness.’”
