سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَقُولُ إِنَّ الرَّجُلَ إِذَا كَانَ يَعْلَمُ السُّورَةَ ثُمَّ نَسِيَهَا أَوْ تَرَكَهَا وَ دَخَلَ الْجَنَّةَ أَشْرَفَتْ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ فَوْقٍ فِي أَحْسَنِ صُورَةٍ فَتَقُولُ تَعْرِفُنِي فَيَقُولُ لَا فَتَقُولُ أَنَا سُورَةُ كَذَا وَ كَذَا لَمْ تَعْمَلْ بِي وَ تَرَكْتَنِي أَمَا وَ اللَّهِ لَوْ عَمِلْتَ بِي لَبَلَغْتُ بِكَ هَذِهِ الدَّرَجَةَ وَ أَشَارَتْ بِيَدِهَا إِلَى فَوْقِهَا.

4. Hamid ibn Ziyad has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Muhammad ibn Sama’a and a number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad all from Muhsin ibn Ahmad from Aban ibn ‘Uthman from ibn abu Ya’qub who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) saying, ‘If a man knows a chapter then forgets it or just leaves it and will enter paradise, it will appear above him in the best form and ask, “Do you know me?” He will say, ‘No, I do not know you. ’ It will say, “I am chapter so and so, you did not follow me and left me. I swear by Allah, had you acted upon my instructions I would have raised you to this degree, pointing with his hand to the above.’”
