Imam 'Ali (a) tried to void answering and said, "O Hammam, be wary of [[Allah]] and perform good deeds because 'Indeed Allah is with those who are Godwary and those who are virtuous.' ([[Quran 16]]:128)"

Someone said, "O Amir al-Mu'minin, why did not it affect you?" Amir al-Mu'minin (a) replied, "Woe to you! There is a fixed hour for each death that it will not exceeded it, and a cause which does not change. Be silent and never repeat such talk, indeed [[Satan]] had put on your tongue."
