Hadith 4

From the book ‘Matalib Al Saoul’ of Muhammad Bin Talha, ‘From a speech of Amir Al-Momineen-asws: ‘It is my-asws guarantee with what I-asws am saying, a pledge, and I-asws am responsible of it. One to whom the lessons have declared to him about what is in front of him, from the examples, would be prevented by the piety from storming into the suspicions. Indeed, and the sins are unruly horses carrying its people upon it, and their reins are loose, and they plummet with them into the Fire. Indeed! And surely the piety is a well-trained horse carrying its people upon it and they are given its reins, and they arrive with them to the Paradise. Truth and falsehood, and for each there are people. So, if the matter is false, then it has been done such since ancient times, and even if the truth was little, sometimes, and perhaps, and scarcely does a thing which has turned around (gone), would return’. He is pre-occupied, the one who the Paradise and the Fire are in front of him; a quick striver will attain salvation while a sluggish seeker hopes, and the derogator collapses in the Fire; the right and the left are strayers while the middle road is the main path. Upon it remains the Book and the Ahadeeth of the Prophet-saww, and from it the Sunnah is implement, and to it are destined the end-results. Destroyed is the one who claims, and disappointed is the one who fabricates, and he incurs loss the one who sells the Hereafter for the former (the world), and for every prophecy is a fixed term, and all what is to come is nearby’’.
