Chapter on the Legal Punishment for Drinking Alcohol and Reports Regarding Singing and Amusements
وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: "خَمْسَةٌ مِنْ خَمْسَةٍ مُحَالٌ اَلْحُرْمَةُ مِنَ اَلْفَاسِقِ مُحَالٌ وَ اَلشَّفَقَةُ مِنَ اَلْعَدُوِّ مُحَالٌ وَ اَلنَّصِيحَةُ مِنَ اَلْحَاسِدِ مُحَالٌ وَ اَلْوَفَاءُ مِنَ اَلْمَرْأَةِ مُحَالٌ وَ اَلْهَيْبَةُ مِنَ اَلْفَقِيرِ مُحَالٌ".
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Five things from five are impossible: Honor from a transgressor is impossible, compassion from an enemy is impossible, sincere advice from a jealous person is impossible, loyalty from a woman is impossible, and awe from a poor person is impossible."
