2ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ بْنِ أَيُّوبَ وَالْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْجَوْهَرِيِّ عَنْ كُلَيْبِ بْنِ مُعَاوِيَةَ الأسَدِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ الْعَبْدَ يُصْبِحُ مُؤْمِناً وَيُمْسِيَ كَافِراً وَيُصْبِحُ كَافِراً وَيُمْسِيَ مُؤْمِناً وَقَوْمٌ يُعَارُونَ الإيمَانَ ثُمَّ يُسْلَبُونَهُ وَيُسَمَّوْنَ الْمُعَارِينَ ثُمَّ قَالَ فُلانٌ مِنْهُمْ.
2. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al- Husayn ibn Sa’id from Fadalah ibn Ayyub and al-Qasim ibn Muhammad al- Jawhari from Kulayb ibn Mu’awiyah al-Asadi from Abu ‘Abdillah who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah has said, ‘A servant (of Allah) may live in the morning as a believer and in the evening as an unbeliever. One may live in the morning as an unbeliever and in the evening as a believer. A people borrow belief then it is removed from them and they are called people with transient (belief).’ Then the Imam said, ‘So and so is among them (the last group).”’
