1434. THE DISTINGUISHING CHARACTERISTICS OF A NEGLIGENT PERSON

4833.لُقمانُ عليه السلام - لابنِهِ وهو يَعِظُهُ - : يابُنَيَّ ، لِكُلِّ شَي‏ءٍ علامةٌ يُعرَفُ بها ويُشهَدُ علَيها ... وللغافِلِ ثلاثُ علاماتٍ : السَّهوُ ، واللَّهوُ ، والنِّسيانُ .1

4833. Luqman (AS) said to his son, exhorting him: ‘O my son, everything has a distinguishing characteristic by which it is recognised and witnessed … the negligent person has three distinguishing characteristics: absent-mindedness, amusement, and forgetfulness.’2

4834.الإمامُ الحسنُ عليه السلام: الغَفلَةُ تَركُكَ المَسجِدَ، وطاعَتُكَ المُفسِدَ .3

4834.Imam al-Hasan (AS) said, ‘Negligence is [manifest] in your abandonment of the mosque and in your obedience of the corrupt.’4
