6ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ جَبَلَةَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَنْ أُعْطِيَ ثَلاثاً لَمْ يُمْنَعْ ثَلاثاً مَنْ أُعْطِيَ الدُّعَاءَ أُعْطِيَ الإجَابَةَ وَمَنْ أُعْطِيَ الشُّكْرَ أُعْطِيَ الزِّيَادَةَ وَمَنْ أُعْطِيَ التَّوَكُّلَ أُعْطِيَ الْكِفَايَةَ ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ تَلَوْتَ كِتَابَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَمَنْ يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى الله فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ وَقَالَ لَئِنْ شَكَرْتُمْ لأزِيدَنَّكُمْ وَقَالَ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ.

Published English translation

6. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad and Ali ibn Ibrahim from his father all from Yahya ibn al-Mubarak from ‘Abd Allah ibn Jublah from Muawiyah ibn Wahab from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.) has said, ‘To whoever three things are given he is not denied three things. To whoever prayer is given he is given acceptance to his prayer. To whoever thankfulness is given he is given increased favors. To whoever trust is given he is given protection.’ Then He said, ‘Have you read in the book of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, “Whoever places his trust in Allah, He provides him sufficient protection.” (14:7) “If you be thankful We will increase the favor. Pray to Me, I will accept your prayer.’”” (25:60)
