And the one (seeking it for) the understanding and ‘الْعَقْلِ’ the intelligence is with the heartaches, and the grief, and the vigils, and would have covered his head in his robe, and stands (to pray) the night ( Salat ) in his dark nights.

And it was narrated to me by Muhammad Bin Mahmoun Abu Abdullah Al Qazwiny, from a number of our companions, among them being Ja’far Bin Muhammad Al Sayqal, at Qazweek, from Ahmad Bin Isa, Al Alawy, from Abbad Bin Suheyb Al Basry, from Abu Abdullah -asws .
[11] Fearful will never leave the Sunnah: الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْمُعَلَّى بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ بِسْطَامَ بْنِ مُرَّةَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ حَسَّانَ عَنِ الْهَيْثَمِ بْنِ وَاقِدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ الْعَبْدِيِّ عَنْ سَعْدٍ الْإِسْكَافِ عَنِ الْأَصْبَغِ بْنِ نُبَاتَةَ قَالَ قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ ( عليه السلام ) مَا بَالُ أَقْوَامٍ غَيَّرُوا سُنَّةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ عَدَلُوا عَنْ وَصِيِّهِ لَا يَتَخَوَّفُونَ أَنْ يَنْزِلَ بِهِمُ الْعَذَابُ Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Al Moalla Bin Muhammad, from Bastam Bin Murra, from Is’haq Bin Hassan, from Al Haysam Bin Waqid, from Ali Bin Al Husayn Al Abdy, from Sa’d Al Askaf, from Al Asbagh Bin Nubata who said, ‘Amir Al-Momineen -asws said: ‘What is the matter with a people who are changing the Sunnah of Rasool-Allah -saww and are turning away from his -saww bequest?
Are they not fearing that the Punishment might descend upon them ?’ ثُمَّ تَلَا هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ أَ لَمْ تَرَ إِلَى الَّذِينَ بَدَّلُوا نِعْمَتَ اللَّهِ كُفْراً وَ أَحَلُّوا قَوْمَهُمْ دارَ الْبَوارِ جَهَنَّمَ Then he -asws recited the Verse [14:28] Have you not seen those who have changed Allah’s Favour for ungratefulness and made their people to alight into the abode of perdition [14:29] into Hell ?’ ثُمَّ قَالَ نَحْنُ النِّعْمَةُ الَّتِي أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ بِهَا عَلَى عِبَادِهِ وَ بِنَا يَفُوزُ مَنْ فَازَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ .
