Original Arabic text

[1547/2] الكافي: حميد بن زياد، عن الحسن بن محمد بن سماعة وعدة من أصحابنا، عن أحمد بن محمد جميعا، عن محسن بن أحمد، عن أبان بن عثمان، عن ابن أبي يعفور قال: سمعت أبا عبدالله عليه السلام يقول: إن الرجل إذا كان يعلم السورة ثم نسيها أو تركها ودخل الجنة أشرفت عليه من فوق في أحسن صورة فتقول: تعرفني؟ فيقول: لا، فتقول: أنا سورة كذا وكذا لم تعمل بي وتركتني أما والله لو عملت بي لبلغت بك هذه الدرجة وأشارت بيدها إلى فوقها

[2/1547] al-Kafi: Humayd b. Ziyad from Muhammad b. Sama’a; A number of our companions from Ahmad b. Muhammad; all together from Muhsin b. Ahmad from Aban b. Uthman from Ibn Abi Ya’fur who said: I heard Aba Abdillah (AS) saying: A man -if he used to know a chapter and then forgets it or abandons it and then enters paradise- she appears to him from above in a most beautiful form and says: ‘Do you know me?’ He says: ‘No’ She says: ‘I am such and such chapter, you did not act by me and abandoned me, by Allah if you had acted by me I would have made you reach this station,’ and she points with her hand above her

verification Note
Publisher content rights, translator attribution and structural checks, with independent publisher-page spot checks—not scholarly authentication or printed-edition collation. Historical text and scholarly reference strings may contain source errors; they are not silently corrected. No full commentary prose or inferred narrator identity is added. Muʿjam coverage, where present, is only the supplied excerpt, not the complete work.
