7ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ سَأَلَهُ رَجُلٌ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ الْحَرَامِ مَنْ أَعْظَمُ النَّاسِ وِزْراً فَقَالَ مَنْ يَقِفُ بِهَذَيْنِ الْمَوْقِفَيْنِ عَرَفَةَ وَالْمُزْدَلِفَةِ وَسَعَى بَيْنَ هَذَيْنِ الْجَبَلَيْنِ ثُمَّ طَافَ بِهَذَا الْبَيْتِ وَصَلَّى خَلْفَ مَقَامِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) ثُمَّ قَالَ فِي نَفْسِهِ أَوْ ظَنَّ أَنَّ الله لَمْ يَغْفِرْ لَهُ فَهُوَ مِنْ أَعْظَمِ النَّاسِ وِزْراً.
7. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn abu Nasr from certain individuals of our people who has said the following: “A man in Masjid al-Haram (the Sacred Masjid) asked abu ‘Abd Allah, Alayhi al-Salam, about the greatest sin. He (the Imam) replied, ‘If one attends these two places, ‘Arafah and al-Muzdalifah, performs Sa‘y between these two hills, performs Tawaf around this House, performs salat (prayer) behind Maqam of Ibrahim عليه السلام then says to himself or thinks that Allah does not forgive his sins, he has, of all people, sinned the most.’”
