أَخْبَرَنِي صَالِحُ بْنُ عُقْبَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْعَبْدَ الصَّالِحَ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ تُسْتَحَبُّ عَرَامَةُ الصَّبِيِّ فِي صِغَرِهِ لِيَكُونَ حَلِيماً فِي كِبَرِهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ مَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَكُونَ إِلَّا هَكَذَا .
Translation
Ali Bin Muhammad Bin Bundar, from his father, from Muhammad Bin Ali Al Hamdany, from Abu Saeed Al Shamy, from Salih Bin Uqba who said, ‘I heard Al-Abd Al-Salih<sup>asws</sup> (7<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘It is recommended to (involve) the child in hard-work during his young age in order for him to become forbearing in his old age’. Then he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It is not befitting except if it happens like this’.
