1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ‘Uthman ibn ‘Isa from Sama‘ah who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah, ‘Alayhi al-Salam, has said, ‘Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, has issued two kinds of warnings about consuming properties of orphans. One is the suffering by the fire in the next life. The punishment in this life is mentioned in the words of Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, “Those who leave behind weak offspring for whom he is afraid. . . .” (4:11) It means that one must be afraid of leaving behind weak offspring who will be treated as he has treated the orphans.’”
IsnādUn certain nombre de nos compagnons ont rapporté de Ahmad ibn Muhammad, de Othman ibn Isa, de Sama'a, qui a dit : Abu Abdullah (que la paix soit sur lui) a dit :
Allah le Très-Haut a promis deux châtiments pour celui qui maltraite les biens de l'orphelin : l'un est le châtiment de l'au-delà, le Feu, et quant au châtiment de ce monde, Sa parole : "Que ceux qui, s'ils laissaient derrière eux une descendance faible, redoutent pour elle" - c'est-à-dire qu'il devrait craindre de maltraiter sa descendance comme il a maltraité ces orphelins.
