The Sufficient (Vol 2) · Hadith 1677 (#Ḥadīth #5)

5ـ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلِ بْنِ دَرَّاجٍ وَدُرُسْتَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ إِلا وَلَهُ كَيْلٌ وَوَزْنٌ إِلا الدُّمُوعُ فَإِنَّ الْقَطْرَةَ مِنْهَا تُطْفِئُ بِحَاراً مِنَ النَّارِ فَإِذَا اغْرَوْرَقَتِ الْعَيْنُ بِمَائِهَا لَمْ يَرْهَقْ وَجْهَهُ قَتَرٌ وَلا ذِلَّةٌ فَإِذَا فَاضَتْ حَرَّمَهُ الله عَلَى النَّارِ وَلَوْ أَنَّ بَاكِياً بَكَى فِي أُمَّةٍ لَرُحِمُوا.

5. Ibn abu ‘Umayr has narrated from Jamil ibn Darraj and Drust from Muhammad ibn Marwan who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah saying, ‘everything has weighing and measuring tools except the tears. A drop of tear can extinguish oceans of fire. If the eye floods with tears, that face will not suffer anything or become humiliated. If the eye overflows with tears, Allah makes it forbidden for the fire to burn it and if a person weeps in a nation, that nation will receive favors.’”
