5873 - وَ رَوَى اَلْمُفَضَّلُ بْنُ عُمَرَ عَنِ اَلصَّادِقِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَلَيْهِمُ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ : قِيلَ لِلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ كَيْفَ أَصْبَحْتَ يَا اِبْنَ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ قَالَ "أَصْبَحْتُ وَ لِيَ رَبٌّ فَوْقِي وَ اَلنَّارُ أَمَامِي وَ اَلْمَوْتُ يَطْلُبُنِي وَ اَلْحِسَابُ مُحْدِقٌ بِي وَ أَنَا مُرْتَهَنٌ بِعَمَلِي لاَ أَجِدُ مَا أُحِبُّ وَ لاَ أَدْفَعُ مَا أَكْرَهُ وَ اَلْأُمُورُ بِيَدِ غَيْرِي فَإِنْ شَاءَ عَذَّبَنِي وَ إِنْ شَاءَ عَفَا عَنِّي فَأَيُّ فَقِيرٍ أَفْقَرُ مِنِّي".
Hadith.5873 - Al-Mufaddal ibn Umar narrated from Imam Ja'far ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq, from his father Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), from his grandfather Imam Hussain ibn Ali (as), peace be upon them, who said:
"It was said to Imam Hussain ibn Ali (as): "How did you wake up this morning, O' son of the Messenger of Allah (swt)?"
Imam (as) replied: "I woke up with my Lord (azj) above me, the Hellfire before me, death pursuing me, and the reckoning encircling me. I am held accountable by my own deeds. I do not attain what I desire, nor can I repel what I dislike. All matters are in the hands of someone other than myself. If He (swt) wills, He (swt) will punish me, and if He (swt) wills, He (swt) will forgive me. So, who is poorer than me?"
