[11] علل الشرائع أَبِي عَنْ حَبِيبِ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ الْكُوفِيِّ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ صَبِيحٍ عَنْ زَيْدٍ الشَّحَّامِ قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنِّي سَمِعْتُكَ تَقُولُ نِيَّةُ الْمُؤْمِنِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عَمَلِهِ فَكَيْفَ تَكُونُ النِّيَّةُ خَيْراً مِنَ الْعَمَلِ (The book) ‘Ilal Al Sharaie’ – My father, from Habeeb Bin Al-Husayn Al Kufy, from Ibn Abu Al Khattab, from Ahmad Bin Sabeeh, from Zayd Al Shaham who said, ‘I said to Abu Abdullah -asws , ‘I heard you -asws saying: ‘Intention of the Momin is better than his deed’, so how can the intention be better than the deed?’ قَالَ لِأَنَّ الْعَمَلَ رُبَّمَا كَانَ رِيَاءَ الْمَخْلُوقِينَ وَ النِّيَّةُ خَالِصَةٌ لِرَبِّ الْعَالَمِينَ فَيُعْطِي عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَى النِّيَّةِ مَا لَا يُعْطِي عَلَى الْعَمَلِ He -asws said: ‘Because the deed sometimes would be showing off to the people while the intention would be sincerely for Lord -azwj of the worlds.
So the Mighty and Majestic Gives upon the intention what He -azwj does not Give upon the deed’. قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ لَيَنْوِي مِنْ نَهَارِهِ أَنْ يُصَلِّيَ بِاللَّيْلِ فَتَغْلِبُهُ عَيْنُهُ فَيَنَامُ فَيُثْبِتُ اللَّهُ لَهُ صَلَاتَهُ وَ يَكْتُبُ نَفَسَهُ تَسْبِيحاً وَ يَجْعَلُ نَوْمَهُ عَلَيْهِ صَدَقَةً. Abu Abdullah -asws said: ‘The servant intends from his day that he will be praying Salat at night, but his eyes get overcome so he sleeps.
Allah -azwj Affirms his Salat for him, and He -azwj Writes his breathing as Glorification and Makes his sleep upon him as charity’’.
