مَكْتُوبٌ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ ابْنَ آدَمَ كُنْ كَيْفَ شِئْتَ كَمَا تَدِينُ تُدَانُ مَنْ رَضِيَ مِنَ اللَّهِ بِالْقَلِيلِ مِنَ الرِّزْقِ قَبِلَ اللَّهُ مِنْهُ الْيَسِيرَ مِنَ الْعَمَلِ وَ مَنْ رَضِيَ بِالْيَسِيرِ مِنَ الْحَلَالِ خَفَّتْ مَئُونَتُهُ وَ زَكَتْ مَكْسَبَتُهُ وَ خَرَجَ مِنْ حَدِّ الْفُجُورِ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Abu Abdullah, from his father, from Abdullah Bin Al Qasim, from Amro Bin Abu Al Miqdam, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘It is written in the Torah: “O son of Adam<sup>as</sup>! Become howsoever you desire to. Just as you sow, so shall you reap”! The one who was pleased from Allah<sup>azwj</sup> with the little from the sustenance, Allah<sup>azwj</sup> would Accept the less deeds from him. The one who was pleased with the less from the Permissible (means), his expenditure would be light, and his earnings would be pure, and he would be outside from the boundary of the immoralities’.
