110. hadíth

1705 - قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : «مَنْ عَظُمَتْ نِعْمَةُ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اِشْتَدَّتْ مَئُونَةُ اَلنَّاسِ عَلَيْهِ فَاسْتَدِيمُوا اَلنِّعْمَةَ بِاحْتِمَالِ اَلْمَئُونَةِ وَ لاَ تَعْرِضُوهَا لِلزَّوَالِ فَقَلَّ مَنْ زَالَتْ عَنْهُ اَلنِّعْمَةُ فَكَادَتْ تَعُودُ إِلَيْهِ ».

Hadith.1705 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) said: "Whoever is granted great blessings by Allah (swt) will also face greater responsibilities from others. Preserve the blessings by enduring these responsibilities and do not expose them to loss. Rarely does one lose blessings only to have them return."
