The Sufficient (Vol 2) · Hadith 232 (#Ḥadīth #2)

2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَجَّالِ عَنْ ثَعْلَبَةَ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) لِكُلِّ أَحَدٍ شِرَّةٌ وَلِكُلِّ شِرَّةٍ فَتْرَةٌ فَطُوبَى لِمَنْ كَانَتْ فَتْرَتُهُ إِلَى خَيْرٍ.

2. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from al-Hajjal from Tha’labah who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah has said, ‘Everyone has an enthusiasm and every enthusiasm has a decline. Tuba (a tree in paradise) is for those whose decline is toward a constructive side.’”
