Chapter 158 | Frightening a Believer

2ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ الْخَفَّافِ عَنْ بَعْضِ الْكُوفِيِّينَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَنْ رَوَّعَ مُؤْمِناً بِسُلْطَانٍ لِيُصِيبَهُ مِنْهُ مَكْرُوهٌ فَلَمْ يُصِبْهُ فَهُوَ فِي النَّارِ وَمَنْ رَوَّعَ مُؤْمِناً بِسُلْطَانٍ لِيُصِيبَهُ مِنْهُ مَكْرُوهٌ فَأَصَابَهُ فَهُوَ مَعَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَآلِ فِرْعَوْنَ فِي النَّارِ.

2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from abu Ishaq al-Khaffaf from certain people of al-Kufah from Abu ‘Abdillah who has said the following: ‘‘Whoever frightens a believer with an authority and force that may harm him but is not harmed (the frightening person) will be in the fire. Whoever frightens a believer by an authority and forces to harm him and he is harmed, (the frightening person) will be raised with the Pharaoh and the people of Pharaoh in the fire.”
