3-163 Muhammad ibn Musa ibn al-Mutevakil - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Attar quoted (Muhammad ibn) Ahmad, on the authority of Musa ibn Umar (and Sa’ed ibn Abdullah, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Aba Abdullah), on the authority of Ibn Fazal,on the authority of someone who linked it up through other narrators to Aba Abdullah as-Sadiq (MGB), “There are three who will complain to the Honorable the Exalted God: a ruined mosque in which no one prays; scientists caught amongst ignorant people; and the Quran that is left unread with a layer of dust on it.”
IsnādNous a informé Mohammad ibn Moussa ibn Al-Moutawakkil (qu'Allah soit satisfait de lui) qui a dit: Nous a informé Mohammad ibn Yahya Al-Atar, de [Mohammad ibn] Ahmad, de Moussa ibn Omar [et Sa'd ibn Abdallah, d'Ahmad ibn Abi Abdallah], d'Ibn Faddal, de celui qui l'a mentionné, de Abi Abdallah (paix soit sur lui) qui a dit:
Trois choses se plaignent à Allah, Le Puissant et Majestueux: une mosquée en ruine où ses habitants ne prient pas, un savant parmi des ignorants, et un Coran suspendu qui a été recouvert de poussière et dans lequel on ne lit pas.
