The Sufficient (Vol 2) · Hadith 957 (#Ḥadīth #2)

2ـ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ سَعْدَانَ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ إِنَّ لِلْقَلْبِ أُذُنَيْنِ فَإِذَا هَمَّ الْعَبْدُ بِذَنْبٍ قَالَ لَهُ رُوحُ الإيمَانِ لا تَفْعَلْ وَقَالَ لَهُ الشَّيْطَانُ افْعَلْ وَإِذَا كَانَ عَلَى بَطْنِهَا نُزِعَ مِنْهُ رُوحُ الإيمَانِ.

2. Al-Husayn ibn Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad ibn Ishaq from Sa’dan from abu Basir from Abu ‘Abdillah who has said the following: “The heart has two ears. When a servant (of Allah) thinks to commit a sin the spirit of belief says to him, ‘Do not do it’ and Satan says, ‘Do it.’ When he is on her belly (for an indecent act) the spirit of belief is taken away from him.’”
