12ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ أُذَيْنَةَ عَنْ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَا مِنْ أَحَدٍ يَظْلِمُ بِمَظْلِمَةٍ إِلا أَخَذَهُ الله بِهَا فِي نَفْسِهِ وَمَالِهِ وَأَمَّا الظُّلْمُ الَّذِي بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ الله فَإِذَا تَابَ غَفَرَ الله لَهُ.

Published English translation

12. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from ‘Umar ibn ‘Udhaynah from Zurara from abu Ja’far (a.s.) who has said the following: “Abu Ja’far (a.s.) has said, ‘Whoever does injustice (financially) Allah takes it (recompense) from his life or property. However, the injustice that is between him and Allah, Allah forgives it if he repents.’”
