Arabic Text

وَحَدَّثَنِيهِ بِشْرُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدٌ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ جَعْفَرٍ - عَنْ شُعْبَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سُلَيْمَانَ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَقَالَ ‏ "‏ ثَلاَثَةٌ لاَ يُكَلِّمُهُمُ اللَّهُ وَلاَ يَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِمْ وَلاَ يُزَكِّيهِمْ وَلَهُمْ عَذَابٌ أَلِيمٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

English Translation

Bishr b. Khalid has narrated this hadith on the authority of Sulaiman with the same chain of transmitters with this addition:

Allah shall neither speak nor look at nor absolve then, and there is a tormenting punishment for them.
