سَأَلْتُ أَبَا إِبْرَاهِيمَ ( عليه السلام ) عَنْ رَجُلٍ قَالَ لِلَّهِ عَلَيَّ الْمَشْيُ إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ إِنِ اشْتَرَيْتُ لِأَهْلِي شَيْئاً بِنَسِيئَةٍ فَقَالَ أَ يَشُقُّ ذَلِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ قَالَ نَعَمْ يَشُقُّ عَلَيْهِمْ أَنْ لَا يَأْخُذَ لَهُمْ شَيْئاً بِنَسِيئَةٍ قَالَ فَلْيَأْخُذْ لَهُمْ بِنَسِيئَةٍ وَ لَيْسَ عَلَيْهِ شَيْ‏ءٌ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Safwan Bin Yahya, from Is’haq Bin Ammar who said, ‘I asked Abu Ibrahim<sup>asws</sup> (7<sup>th</sup> Imam<sup>asws</sup>) about a man who said, ‘For the Sake of Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, upon me is the walking to the Kaaba if I can buy something on credit for my family’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Is that suffering upon them?’ He said, ‘Yes, that is suffering upon them if he cannot take something for them on credit’. He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So let him take it for them on credit, and there is nothing upon him’.
