6ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ حَكَمِ بْنِ أَيْمَنَ عَنْ قَاسِمٍ شَرِيكِ الْمُفَضَّلِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ الإسْلامُ يُحْقَنُ بِهِ الدَّمُ وَتُؤَدَّى بِهِ الأمَانَةُ وَتُسْتَحَلُّ بِهِ الْفُرُوجُ وَالثَّوَابُ عَلَى الإيمَانِ.

Reward, however, comes from belief.’”
