533. THE PERSON WITH THE GREATEST REGRET

(وَأَنْذِرْهُمْ يَوْمَ الْحَسْرَةِ إِذْ قُضِيَ الْأَمْرُ وَهُمْ فِي غَفْلَةٍ وَهُمْ لا يُؤْمِنُونَ) .1

"Warn them of the Day of Regret, when the matter will be decided, while they are [yet] heedless and do not have faith." 2

(أَنْ تَقُولَ نَفْسٌ يَا حَسْرَتَى‏ عَلَى‏ ما فَرَّطْتُ فِي جَنْبِ اللَّهِ وَإِنْ كُنْتُ لَمِنَ السّاخِرِينَ) .3

"Lest anyone should say, 'Alas for my negligence in the vicinage of Allah! Indeed I was among those who ridiculed." 4

(وَيَوْمَ يَعَضُّ الظّالِمُ عَلَى يَدَيْهِ يَقُولُ يا لَيْتَنِي اتَّخَذْتُ مَعَ الرَّسُولِ سَبِيلاً) .5

"A day when the wrongdoer will bite his hands, saying 'I wish I had followed the Apostle's way." 6

1610.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : إنَّ أشَدَّ النّاسِ نَدامَةً يَومَ القِيامَةِ ، رجُلٌ باعَ آخِرَتَهُ بدُنيا غَيرِهِ .7

1610.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'The person with the most intense remorse on the Day of Resurrection will be the man who sold his Hereafter for the world of others.' 8

1611.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : إنَّ أعْظَمَ الحَسَراتِ يَومَ القِيامَةِ ، حَسْرَةُ رجُلٍ كَسَبَ مالاً في غَيرِ طاعَةِ اللَّهِ ، فوَرِثَهُ رجُلٌ فأنْفَقَهُ في طاعةِ اللَّهِ سُبحانَهُ ، فدَخَلَ بهِ الجَنّةَ ، ودَخَلَ الأوَّلُ بهِ النّارَ .9

1611.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'The greatest of regrets on the Day of Resurrection will be the regret of a man who gained wealth through means of disobedience Allah, which was then inherited by a man who spent it in the obedience of Allah, glory be to Him; thus because of it [i.e. the same wealth] the latter entered Paradise whereas the former entered the Fire.' 10

1612.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : إنّ أعظَمَ النّاسِ يَومَ القِيامَةِ (حَسْرَةً) مَن وَصفَ عَدْلاً ثُمَّ خالَفَهُ إلى‏ غَيرِهِ .11

1612.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'The most regretful person on the Day of Resurrection will be the man who speaks of justice yet acts in opposition to it with others.' 12
