نَجِيحٍ أَبُو عُمَارَةَ قَالَ

سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ يَقُولُ لَقَدْ عَهِدْتُ الْمُسْلِمِينَ وَإِنَّ الرَّجُلَ مِنْهُمْ لَيُصْبِحُ فَيَقُولُ يَا أَهْلِيَهْ يَا أَهْلِيَهْ يَتِيمَكُمْ يَتِيمَكُمْ يَا أَهْلِيَهْ يَا أَهْلِيَهْ مِسْكِينَكُمْ مِسْكِينَكُمْ يَا أَهْلِيَهْ يَا أَهْلِيَهْ جَارَكُمْ جَارَكُمْ وَأُسْرِعَ بِخِيَارِكُمْ وَأَنْتُمْ كُلَّ يَوْمٍ تَرْذُلُونَ وَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ وَإِذَا شِئْتَ رَأَيْتَهُ فَاسِقًا يَتَعَمَّقُ بِثَلاَثِينَ أَلْفًا إِلَى النَّارِ مَا لَهُ قَاتَلَهُ اللَّهُ؟ بَاعَ خَلاَقَهُ مِنَ اللهِ بِثَمَنِ عَنْزٍ وَإِنْ شِئْتَ رَأَيْتَهُ مُضَيِّعًا مُرْبَدًّا فِي سَبِيلِ الشَّيْطَانِ لاَ وَاعِظَ لَهُ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ وَلاَ مِنَ النَّاسِ

Translation

✧ I heard al-Ḥasan say, “I remember the Muslims when a man among them would wake up and say, ‘O my family, O my family—your orphan, your orphan! O my family, O my family—your poor one, your poor one! O my family, O my family—your neighbor, your neighbor!’ The best among you were taken quickly, and you are every day becoming more contemptible.” And I heard him say, “If you wish, you can see him—a defiant sinner plunging into thirty thousand [sins] toward the Fire. What is wrong with him, may Allah slay him? He sold his portion from Allah for the price of a goat. And if you wish, you can see him squandering, tied to a stake in the path of Shayṭān, with no admonisher from his own soul or from the people.”
