26ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْهَاشِمِيُّ عَنْ جَدِّهِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ الله عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ الْجَعْفَرِيِّ عَنِ الرِّضَا (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ أَوْحَى الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ إِلَى نَبِيٍّ مِنَ الأنْبِيَاءِ إِذَا أُطِعْتُ رَضِيتُ وَإِذَا رَضِيتُ بَارَكْتُ وَلَيْسَ لِبَرَكَتِي نِهَايَةٌ وَإِذَا عُصِيتُ غَضِبْتُ وَإِذَا غَضِبْتُ لَعَنْتُ وَلَعْنَتِي تَبْلُغُ السَّابِعَ مِنَ الْوَرَى.

Published English translation

26. Ali ibn Ibrahim al-Hashimi has narrated from his grandfather, Muhammad ibn al-Hassan ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Ubayd Allah from Sulayman al-Ja’fary from al- Rida (a.s.) who has said the following: “Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, sent revelation to one of the prophets that said, ‘When I am obeyed I become happy. When I become happy I grant blessings and there is no end to My blessings. When I am disobeyed I become angry, when I become angry I condemn and My condemnation reaches seven levels (generations).’”
