أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی الْعَطَّارُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنِ الْعَبْدِیِّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی عُمَیْرٍ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ: إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ یَرْحَمُ الرَّجُلَ لِشِدَّهِ حُبِّهِ لِوَلَدِهِ.
1. My father رحمه الله said: it was narrated to me by Muhammad b. Yahya al-’Attar from Muhammad b. Ahmad from al-’Abdi from Ibn Abi ’Umayr from Abi Abdillah عليه السلام who said: “Surely Allah will shower mercy on a person who loves his children greatly.”
