كَانَ عِنْدَهُ قَوْمٌ يُحَدِّثُهُمْ إِذْ ذَكَرَ رَجُلٌ مِنْهُمْ رَجُلًا فَوَقَعَ فِيهِ وَ شَكَاهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع وَ أَنَّى لَكَ بِأَخِيكَ كُلِّهِ وَ أَيُّ الرِّجَالِ الْمُهَذَّبُ.
English translationMuhammad Sarwar
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Muhammad from ‘Abd Allah ibn Muhammad al-Hajjal from Tha’Labah ibn Maymun from those whom he has mentioned (in his book) from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Once in the presence of Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) there were people speaking to him. One man mentioned the name of another man and he began to criticize him and complained against him. Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) asked, ‘Where from can you have a perfect brother? Who is among man, free and pure of faults and flaws?”’
