Do your hire charges fall upon them?’ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ I said, ‘Yes, may I be sacrificed for you -asws !’ قَالَ فَقَالَ لِي أَ تُحِبُّ بَقَاءَهُمْ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ كِرَاكَ He (the narrator) said, ‘He -asws said to me: ‘So you love their remaining alive until your hire charges come out’. قُلْتُ نَعَمْ I said, ‘Yes’.

قَالَ فَمَنْ أَحَبَّ بَقَاءَهُمْ فَهُوَ مِنْهُمْ وَ مَنْ كَانَ مِنْهُمْ فَهُوَ وَرَدَ النَّارَ He -asws said: ‘The one who loves their remaining alive, so he is from them, and one who were to be from them, he will arrive at the Fire’. قَالَ صَفْوَانُ فَذَهَبْتُ وَ بِعْتُ جِمَالِي عَنْ آخِرِهَا Safwan said, ‘I went and sold my camels, up to their last one.
