حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ يُوسُفَ حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنِ النُّعْمَانِ بْنِ بَشِيرٍ

مَثَلُ الْقَائِمِ عَلَى حُدُودِ اللهِ [عَزَّ وَجَلَّ] وَالرَّاتِعِ فِيهَا وَالْمُدْهِنِ فِيهَا، مَثَلُ قَوْمٍ اسْتَهَمُوا عَلَى سَفِينَةٍ فَأَصَابَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَعْلَاهَا وَأَصَابَ بَعْضُهُمْ أَسْفَلَهَا وَأَوْعَرَهَا، [فَإِذَا الَّذِينَ فِي أَسْفَلِهَا اسْتَقَوْا] مِنَ الْمَاءِ مَرُّوا عَلَى أَصْحَابِهِمْ فَآذَوْهُمْ، فَقَالُوا: لَوْ أَنَّا خَرَقْنَا فِي نَصِيبِنَا خَرْقًا فَاسْتَقَيْنَا مِنْهُ، وَلَمْ نَمُرَّ عَلَى أَصْحَابِنَا فَنُؤْذِيَهُمْ، فَإِنْ تَرَكُوهُمْ وَمَا أَرَادُوا هَلَكُوا، وَإِنْ أَخَذُوا عَلَى أَيْدِيهِمْ نَجَوْا جَمِيعًا

✧ The likeness of the one who upholds the limits of God [Mighty and Majestic], the one who transgresses them, and the one who is negligent of them is like a people who drew lots for places on a ship: some of them got the upper deck and some got the lower, most uncomfortable part. [Whenever those in the lower part needed water], they had to go up to their companions and disturb them. They said: 'If we were to make a hole in our share and draw water from it, we would not have to pass by our companions and disturb them.' If they are left to what they want, they will all perish, but if they seize their hands, they will all be saved.
