إِنَّ أُنَاساً بِالْمَدِينَةِ قَالُوا لَيْسَ لِلْحَسَنِ ( عليه السلام ) مَالٌ فَبَعَثَ الْحَسَنُ ( عليه السلام ) إِلَى رَجُلٍ بِالْمَدِينَةِ فَاسْتَقْرَضَ مِنْهُ أَلْفَ دِرْهَمٍ وَ أَرْسَلَ بِهَا إِلَى الْمُصَدِّقِ وَ قَالَ هَذِهِ صَدَقَةُ مَالِنَا فَقَالُوا مَا بَعَثَ الْحَسَنُ ( عليه السلام ) بِهَذِهِ مِنْ تِلْقَاءِ نَفْسِهِ إِلَّا وَ لَهُ مَالٌ .


Translation

From him, from Ibn Fazzal, and Ibn Mahboub, from Yunus Bin Yaqoub, from Abu Baseer, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The people in Al-Medina were saying, ‘There is no wealth for Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup>’. So Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> sent for a man of Al-Medina and borrowed a thousand Dirhams from him, and sent with it to the governor and said: ‘This is a charity of our<sup>asws</sup> wealth’. So they said, ‘Al-Hassan<sup>asws</sup> would not have sent this from himself<sup>asws</sup> except that there was indeed wealth for him<sup>asws</sup>’.
