Chapter 159 | One suffering from sorrow bears more patience

عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ ابْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ انْقَطَعَ شِسْعُ نَعْلِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) وَ هُوَ فِي جَنَازَةٍ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ بِشِسْعِهِ لِيُنَاوِلَهُ فَقَالَ أَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ شِسْعَكَ فَإِنَّ صَاحِبَ الْمُصِيبَةِ أَوْلَى بِالصَّبْرِ عَلَيْهَا.

159. A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Ibn Mahboub, from the one whom he mentioned, who has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah said, ‘A strip of the slipper of Abu Abdullah broke whilst he was in a funeral. So a man came with his strip for his slipper (as a replacement). He said: ‘Hold on to your strip, for patience is foremost for the people in misfortune’.
