وَ ايْمُ اللَّهِ لَا يُعَذِّبُ اللَّهُ مُؤْمِناً بَعْدَ...
وَ ايْمُ اللَّهِ لَا يُعَذِّبُ اللَّهُ مُؤْمِناً بَعْدَ التَّوْبَةِ وَ الِاسْتِغْفَارِ إِلَّا بِسُوءِ الظَّنِ بِاللَّهِ وَ تَقْصِيرِهِ مِنْ رَجَائِهِ لِلَّهِ وَ سُوءِ خُلُقِهِ وَ مِنِ اغْتِيَابِهِ لِلْمُؤْمِنِينَ And I -asws swear by Allah -azwj ! Allah -azwj will not Punish a Momin after the repentance and seeking the Forgiveness, except due to his evil thoughts with Allah -azwj , and his deficiency from his hoping to Allah -azwj , and his evil manners, and from his backbiting of the Momineen.
وَ اللَّهِ لَا يُحْسِنُ عَبْدٌ مُؤْمِنٌ ظَنّاً بِاللَّهِ إِلَّا كَانَ اللَّهُ عِنْدَ ظَنِّهِ بِهِ لِأَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ كَرِيمٌ يَسْتَحْيِي أَنْ يُخْلِفَ ظَنَّ عَبْدِهِ وَ رَجَاءَهُ فَأَحْسِنُوا الظَّنَّ بِاللَّهِ وَ ارْغَبُوا إِلَيْهِ وَ قَدْ قَالَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَ الظَّانِّينَ بِاللَّهِ ظَنَّ السَّوْءِ عَلَيْهِمْ دائِرَةُ السَّوْءِ. By Allah -azwj !
A Momin will not have good thoughts with Allah -azwj except Allah -azwj would be with his thoughts with Him -azwj , because Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic is Benevolent. He -azwj is too Embarrassed to Oppose the thoughts of His -azwj servant and (dash) his hopes, therefore improve the thoughts with Allah -azwj and be desirous to Him -azwj , and Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic Said: the thinkers of evil thoughts with Allah. Upon them is the evil field of thought, [48:6] ’’.
[11] وَ أَرْوِي عَنِ الْعَالِمِ ع أَنَّ اللَّهَ أَوْحَى إِلَى مُوسَى بْنِ عِمْرَانَ ع يَا مُوسَى قُلْ لِبَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ أَنَا عِنْدَ ظَنِّ عَبْدِي بِي فَلْيَظُنَّ بِي مَا شَاءَ يَجِدُنِي عِنْدَهُ. And it is reported from the scholar -asws : ‘Allah -azwj Revealed to Musa -as Bin Imran -as : “O Musa ‑as !
Say to the children of Israel, I -azwj am with the thoughts of My -azwj servant, so let him think of Me -azwj whatever he so desire, he will find Me -azwj with him (accordingly)!”’ [12] How to be a good thinker about Allah -azwj ?
