٣٤٣١٥ - حدثنا مطلب بن زياد عن جابر قال: كنا مع ابي جعفر في المسجد وغلام ينظر إلى ابي جعفر ويبكي، فقال له ابو جعفر: ما يبكيك؟ قال: من حبكم، قال: نظرت حيث نظر الله، واخترت من خيره الله.
Hazrat Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that we were in the mosque with Hazrat Abu Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) when a boy was looking at Hazrat Abu Ja'far (may Allah have mercy on him) and was crying. So Abu Ja'far (may Allah have mercy on him) said to him: What has made you cry? He replied: Your love among the people has made me cry. He (may Allah have mercy on him) said: You have seen where Allah has seen. And you have chosen the person whom Allah has chosen.
