1- أَبُو عَلِيٍّ الأشْعَرِيُّ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ عَنْ سَعْدَانَ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي بَصِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ لَيْسَ شَيْ‏ءٌ تَحْضُرُهُ الْمَلائِكَةُ إِلا الرِّهَانُ وَمُلاعَبَةُ الرَّجُلِ أَهْلَهُ.
1. Abu Ali al-Ash’ariy has narrated from Ahmad ibn Ishaq from Sa’dan ibn Muslim from abu Basir who has said the following: “Abu ‘ Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘No other thing is attended by the angel as horse racing is and a man’s playing with his wife.’”
