2ـ ابْنُ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ نَافِعٍ الْبَجَلِيِّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مَرْوَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ إِنَّ رَجُلاً أَتَى النَّبِيَّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وآلِه) فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ الله أَوْصِنِي فَقَالَ لا تُشْرِكْ بِالله شَيْئاً وَإِنْ حُرِّقْتَ بِالنَّارِ وَعُذِّبْتَ إِلا وَقَلْبُكَ مُطْمَئِنٌّ بِالإيمَانِ وَوَالِدَيْكَ فَأَطِعْهُمَا وَبَرَّهُمَا حَيَّيْنِ كَانَا أَوْ مَيِّتَيْنِ وَإِنْ أَمَرَاكَ أَنْ تَخْرُجَ مِنْ أَهْلِكَ وَمَالِكَ فَافْعَلْ فَإِنَّ ذَلِكَ مِنَ الإيمَانِ.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

2. Ibn Mahbub has narrated from Khalid ibn Naff al-Bajali from Muhammad ibn Marwan who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام saying, ‘Once a man came to the Holy Prophet and said, “O Messenger of Allah, give me a good advice.” The Messenger of Allah said, ‘Do not consider anything as partner of Allah even if you are tortured with fire except when your heart is confident with belief. You must obey your parents and be good to them whether living or dead. If they order you to leave your property and family you must do so; it is of belief.’”
