1692 - وَ قَالَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ لِلْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ : «يَا مُفَضَّلُ إِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ تَعْلَمَ أَ شَقِيٌّ اَلرَّجُلُ أَمْ سَعِيدٌ فَانْظُرْ إِلَى مَعْرُوفِهِ إِلَى مَنْ يَصْنَعُهُ فَإِنْ كَانَ يَصْنَعُهُ إِلَى مَنْ هُوَ أَهْلُهُ فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ إِلَى خَيْرٍ وَ إِنْ كَانَ يَصْنَعُهُ إِلَى غَيْرِ أَهْلِهِ فَاعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اَللَّهِ تَعَالَى خَيْرٌ ».
Hadith.1692 - Imam (as) said to Al-Mufaddal ibn Umar: "O Mufaddal, if you wish to know whether a person is fortunate or wretched, observe to whom he directs his kindness. If he extends it to those who are deserving, then know that he is inclined toward goodness. But if he extends it to those who are undeserving, then know that he has no share of goodness with Allah (swt), the Exalted."
