قُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ مَوَالِيكَ مَاتَ وَ تَرَكَ وُلْداً صِغَاراً وَ تَرَكَ شَيْئاً وَ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ وَ لَيْسَ يَعْلَمُ بِهِ الْغُرَمَاءُ فَإِنْ قَضَاهُ لِغُرَمَائِهِ بَقِيَ وُلْدُهُ وَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ شَيْءٌ فَقَالَ أَنْفَقَهُ عَلَى وُلْدِهِ .
Translation
Hameed Bin iyad, from Ibn Sama’at, from Suleyman Bin Dawood, or one of our companions, from him, from Ali Bin Abu Hama, (It has been narrated) from Abu Al Hassan<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘I said to him<sup>asws</sup> that a man from those in your<sup>asws</sup> Wilayah, died and left small children, and left something, and upon him was debt, and the creditors do not know about it. So if it is spent upon his creditors, and his children would remain, and there would be nothing for them’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Spend it upon his children’.
