[4] The Beautiful Patience: الحسين بن سعيد، في كتاب (التمحيص): عن جابر، قال: قلت لأبي جعفر (عليه السلام) ما الصبر الجميل؟ قال: «ذلك صبر ليس فيه شكوى إلى أحد من الناس. فما شكا شيئا مما أصابه من نوائب الدنيا، إلا أنه قال يوما: انَّما أَشْكُوا بَثِّي وَ حُزْنِي إِلَى اللَّهِ وَ أَعْلَمُ مِنَ اللَّهِ ما لا تَعْلَمُونَ». Al-Husayn Bin Saeed, in the book Al Tamhees, from Jabir who said, ‘I said to Abu Ja’far -asws , ‘What is the beautiful patience?
’ He -asws said: ‘That is patience in which there is no complaint to anyone from the people . So he (Yaqoub -as ) did not complain about anything that he -as was afflicted from the episodes of the world, except that he -as said on the day [12:86] But rather, I only complain of my grief and sorrow to Allah, and I know from Allah what you do not know ’.
[5] عن أبي بصير، عن أبي جعفر (عليه السلام)- قال: «و اشتد حزنه- يعني يعقوب- حتى تقوس ظهره، و أدبرت الدنيا عن يعقوب و ولده، حتى احتاجوا حاجة شديدة و فنيت ميرتهم، فعند ذلك، قال يعقوب لولده: اذْهَبُوا فَتَحَسَّسُوا مِنْ يُوسُفَ وَ أَخِيهِ وَ لا تَيْأَسُوا مِنْ رَوْحِ اللَّهِ إِنَّهُ لا يَيْأَسُ مِنْ رَوْحِ اللَّهِ إِلَّا الْقَوْمُ الْكافِرُونَ فخرج منهم نفر و بعث معهم ببضاعة يسيرة، و كتب معهم كتابا إلى عزيز مصر يتعطفه على نفسه و ولده، و أوصى ولده أن يبدءوا بدفع كتابه قبل البضاعة، فكتب: From Abu Baseer, from; Abu Ja’far -asws says: ‘And his -as grief intensified – meaning Yaqoub -as ’s – to the extent that his -as back became arched, and the world turned its back on Yaqoub -as and his -as sons, until they were in extreme need and they had consumed their provisions.
So it was during that, Yaqoub -as said to his -as sons [12:87] O my sons!
