62 – Khalid b. Khidash narrated to us; Mahdi b. Maymun related; from Shuʿayb b. al-Habhab; from al-Hasan b. Abi al-Hasan concerning the verse, “Indeed, man is most ungrateful to his Lord” (Quran 100:6). He explained: “He lists his afflictions yet forgets his blessings.”
63 – Mahmud al-Warrāq recited to us on that theme:
O you who wrong others by your deeds—
wrong rebounds upon the one who commits it.
How long, oh how long,
will you complain of calamities while forgetting the favors?
٦٢ - حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدُ بْنُ خِدَاشٍ، ثنا مَهْدِيُّ بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ، عَنْ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ الْحَبْحَابِ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ: " ﴿إِنَّ الْإِنْسَانَ لِرَبِّهِ لَكَنُودٌ﴾ [العاديات: ٦] قَالَ: يُعَدِّدُ الْمَصَائِبَ، وَيَنْسَى النِّعَمَ "
٦٣ - أَنْشَدَنَا مَحْمُودٌ الْوَرَّاقُ فِي ذَلِكَ:
[البحر السريع]
يَا أَيُّهَا الظَّالِمُ فِي فِعْلِهِ ... وَالظُّلْمُ مَرْدُودٌ عَلَى مَنْ ظَلَمْ
إِلَى مَتَى أَنْتَ وَحَتَّى مَتَى ... تَشْكُو الْمُصِيبَاتِ وَتَنْسَى النِّعَمْ؟
