مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْحَكَمِ عَنْ أَبَانٍ عَنِ الْحَلَبِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ لَا تَمْشِ فِي حِذَاءٍ وَاحِدٍ قُلْتُ وَ لِمَ قَالَ لِأَنَّهُ إِنْ أَصَابَكَ مَسٌّ مِنَ الشَّيْطَانِ لَمْ يَكَدْ يُفَارِقُكَ إِلَّا مَا شَاءَ اللَّهُ .
4. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from Ali ibn al-Hakam from Aban from al-Halabiy who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah , has said, ‘Do not walk with one pair of shoe.’ I asked, ‘Why I must not walk with one shoe?’ He (the Imam) said, ‘It is because if a touch of Satan reaches you, it will never go away, unless Allah wants otherwise.’”
