The Book of Asceticism · Hadith 206 (#Ḥadīth #2)

فضالة عن أبان بن عثمان عن غيلان يرفعه إلى أبى جعفر عليه السلام يقول: ما من عين اغرورقت في دموعها من خشية الله الا حرمها على النار فان سالت دموعها على خد صاحبها لم يرهق وجهه قتر ولا ذلة وما من شئ إلا وله كيل الا الدموع فان القطرة منها تطفئ البحار من النار ولو أن رجلا بكى في أمة فقطرت منه دمعة لرحموا ببكائه.

2.Faḍālah narrated from Abān ibn ʿUthmān, from Ghaylān who attributed it to Abū Jaʿfar saying, “There is no eye that is welled up with tears out of fear of Allah but that He makes it forbidden to the Fire. If its tears then flow upon the cheeks of its owner, neither gloom nor disgrace will cover his face. There is nothing but that it has a measure, except tears; for verily a single drop of it can extinguish seas of fire. If a man were to weep among his nation and a teardrop fell from him, they would all be shown mercy due to his weeping.”
