سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَقُولُ عَادَيْتُمْ فِينَا الْآبَاءَ وَ الْأَبْنَاءَ وَ الْأَزْوَاجَ وَ ثَوَابُكُمْ عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَمَا إِنَّ أَحْوَجَ مَا تَكُونُونَ[3] إِذَا بَلَغَتِ الْأَنْفُسُ إِلَى هَذِهِ وَ أَوْمَأَ بِيَدِهِ إِلَى حَلْقِهِ.
‘You have antagonised your fathers, and your sons, and your wives with regards to us (asws), and your Reward is upon Allah (azwj) Mighty and Majestic. But rather, it would be most needed when you are in a state when your souls reach to here’ – and he (asws) gestured by his (asws) hand to his (asws) throat’.
