Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 38436 — Reports on weeping out of fear

Malik bin Dinar (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Al-Hajjaj made me weep in this mosque of yours while he was delivering a sermon. I heard him saying: "Some people prepare provisions for themselves, some admonish themselves, some do not trust themselves with their own souls, some take from themselves for their own sake, and some have a restrainer from Allah over their tongue and heart." He said: It made me weep.
