و أما الباقون من قوم نوح (عليه السلام) فاغرقوا لتكذيبهم نبي الله نوحا (عليه السلام)، و سائرهم اغرقوا برضاهم تكذيب المكذبين، و من غاب عن أمر فرضي به كان كمن شاهده و أتاه And as for the remainder of them, from the people of Nuh -as , He -azwj Drowned them due to their belying the Prophet -as of Allah -azwj – Nuh -as , and the rest of them drowned due to their being pleased with the belying of the beliers.

And one who is absent from a matter and was pleased with it, is like the one who was present and came to it (participated in it)’.

[14] حدثنا معاوية بن حكم عن سيلمان بن جعفر الجعفري قال كنت عند ابى الحسن عليه السلام بالحمراء في مشربة مشرفة على البردة والمائدة بين ايدينا إذ رفع رأسه فرأى رجلا مسرعا فرفع يده من الطعام فما لبث ان جاء فصعد إليه فقال البشرى جعلت فداك مات الزبيري It has been narrated to us Muawiya Bin Hakam, from Suleyman Bin Ja’far Al-Ja’fary who said: ‘I was with Abu Al-Hassan -asws at Al-Hamara where water was available and there were delicious food in front of us at dining mat, when he -asws raised his -asws head and saw a man rushing.

he -asws lifted his -asws hand from the food. As soon as he arrived he came up to him -asws saying, ‘The good news! May I be sacrificed for you -asws , Al-Zubeyri has died’. فاطرق إلى الارض وتغير لونه واصفر وجهه ثم رفع رأسه فقال انى اصبته قد ارتكب في ليلته هذه ذنبا ليس باكبر ذنوبه He -asws tapped on the ground, and his -asws colour changed and his -asws face became pale.

Then he -asws raised his -asws head and he -asws said: ‘He suffered for having indulged during this night in a sin from which there is no greater sin’. قال والله مما خطيئاتهم اغرقوا فادخلوا ناراثم مد يده فاكل فلم يلبث ان جاء رجل مولى له جعلت فداك مات الزبيري فقال وما كان سبب موته فقال شرب الخمر البارحة فغرق فيه فمات He -asws said, ‘And Allah -azwj ! From their sins they drown, and enter a Fire’. Then he -asws extended his -asws hand and ate.

But soon a man came and said for his master, ‘May I be sacrificed for you, Al-Zubeyri has died’. He -asws said, ‘And what was the reason for his death?’ He said: ‘Drinking intoxicant yesterday. He drowned in it, (immersing himself in a pool of wine) and he died’.
