Ibn Mahboub...

Ibn Mahboub, from Abu Walladin, and someone else from our companions, who have reported the following: Abu Abdullah -asws regarding the Statement of Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic: “ [22:25] and whoever shall incline therein to wrong unjustly, We will make him taste of a painful chastisement” , so he -asws said: ‘The one who worships other than Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic, or befriends other than the Guardians -asws from Allah -azwj , so he has inclined to injustice and it is upon Allah -azwj Blessed and High to make him taste of a painful chastisement” .

[25] عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عَمِّهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنِ ابْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ يَزِيدَ يَقُولُ حَدَّثَنِي مَعْرُوفُ بْنُ خَرَّبُوذَ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحُسَيْنِ (عليه السلام) أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَقُولُ وَيْلُمِّهِ فَاسِقاً مَنْ لَا يَزَالُ مُمَارِئاً وَيْلُمِّهِ فَاجِراً مَنْ لَا يَزَالُ مُخَاصِماً وَيْلُمِّهِ آثِماً مَنْ كَثُرَ كَلَامُهُ فِي غَيْرِ ذَاتِ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ.

A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Umar Bin Ali, from his uncle Muhammad Bin Umar, from Ibn Azina who said, ‘I heard Umar Bin Yazeed saying, ‘Narrated to me Ma’rouf Bin Kharbouz, who has said: ‘Ali Bin Al-Husayn -asws was saying: ‘Woe be unto a mother who defends the one who does not cease to sin! Woe be unto a mother of an immoral one who does not cease to dispute!

Woe be unto a mother of a sinner, one who speaks a lot regarding other than Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic!’ [26] Finally, the Signs and Ism of Allah -azwj , are other than the ‘Self’ of Allah -azwj , these are in context of ‘Self’ of Allah -azwj – which is another topic, however, as a reference, some Ahadith are included in Appendix III.

‏ APPENDIX I: An Urdu write-up on ‘‘لِغَيْرِ اللَّهِ’’ (other than Allah -azwj ) صوفیوں اور غالیوں کو چیلنج حضرت امام جعفر صادق علیہ السلام نے فرمایا: کوئی آدمی اس وقت تک مشرک نہیں بنتا جب تک ان تین کاموں میں سے کوئی کام نہ کرے.
