The Book has Screamed out to you -as a loud Scream with what you -as are headed for. So how can the eyes fall asleep upon this, or how can the people find pleasure in the life. Had it not been for the deliberately being oblivious, and the following of the misfortune and the following of the lustful desires, and from other than this, that the righteous are in grief .
[15] (An extract) – عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ أَسْبَاطٍ عَنْهُمْ (عليهم السلام) قَالَ فِيمَا وَعَظَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِهِ عِيسَى (عليه السلام) يَا عِيسَى أَنَا رَبُّكَ وَ رَبُّ آبَائِكَ اسْمِي وَاحِدٌ وَ أَنَا الْأَحَدُ الْمُتَفَرِّدُ بِخَلْقِ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ وَ كُلُّ شَيْءٍ مِنْ صُنْعِي وَ كُلٌّ إِلَيَّ رَاجِعُونَ Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ali Bin Asbaat, who has narrated: The Imam -asws having said: ‘Among the Advice which Allah -azwj Gave to Isa -as was: “O Isa -as !
I -azwj am your -as Lord -azwj , and the Lord -azwj of your -as forefathers. My -azwj Name is ‘وَاحِدٌ’ the One, and I -azwj am the ‘الْأَحَدُ’ the One, which cannot be divided, the Lone One Who -azwj Created everything, and everything is Made by My -azwj and everything Returns to Me -azwj . يَا عِيسَى اكْحُلْ عَيْنَكَ بِمِيلِ الْحُزْنِ إِذَا ضَحِكَ الْبَطَّالُونَ O Isa -as ! Apply the Kohl of grief in your -as eyes whilst the people of falsehood laugh.
يَا عِيسَى شَمِّرْ فَكُلُّ مَا هُوَ آتٍ قَرِيبٌ وَ اقْرَأْ كِتَابِي وَ أَنْتَ طَاهِرٌ وَ أَسْمِعْنِي مِنْكَ صَوْتاً حَزِيناً O Isa -as ! Roll up (your -as affairs) for all that comes, is close by, and read My -azwj Book whilst you -as are clean, make Me -azwj Listen to a voice from you -as full of grief .
يَا عِيسَى اهْرُبْ إِلَيَّ مَعَ مَنْ يَهْرُبُ مِنْ نَارٍ ذَاتِ لَهَبٍ وَ نَارٍ ذَاتِ أَغْلَالٍ وَ أَنْكَالٍ لَا يَدْخُلُهَا رَوْحٌ وَ لَا يَخْرُجُ مِنْهَا غَمٌّ أَبَداً قِطَعٌ كَقِطَعِ اللَّيْلِ الْمُظْلِمِ مَنْ يَنْجُ مِنْهَا يَفُزْ وَ لَنْ يَنْجُوَ مِنْهَا مَنْ كَانَ مِنَ الْهَالِكِينَ هِيَ دَارُ الْجَبَّارِينَ وَ الْعُتَاةِ الظَّالِمِينَ وَ كُلِّ فَظٍّ غَلِيظٍ وَ كُلِّ مُخْتَالٍ فَخُورٍ O Isa -as !
Flee to Me -azwj like those who flee from the flaming Fire, and the Fire with chains and fetters. No soul would enter it and its grief would leave from him ever. It is a part like the part of the dark night. Those who are rescued from it would be successful, and those who do not get Rescued from it would be of the Destroyed ones.
