قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) أَ يَجِيءُ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَى أَخِيهِ فَيُدْخِلَ يَدَهُ فِي كِيسِهِ فَيَأْخُذَ حَاجَتَهُ فَلَا يَدْفَعَهُ فَقُلْتُ مَا أَعْرِفُ ذَلِكَ فِينَا فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) فَلَا شَيْءَ إِذاً قُلْتُ فَالْهَلَاكُ إِذاً فَقَالَ إِنَّ الْقَوْمَ لَمْ يُعْطَوْا أَحْلَامَهُمْ بَعْدُ .
Translation
Abu Ali Al Ashary, from Muhammad Bin Al Jabbar, from Ibn Fazzal, from Umar Bin Aban, from Saeed Bin Al Hassan who said, ‘Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Does one of you tend to come over to his brother and insert his hand in his pocket and take (out money as per) his need, and he does not repel him?’ So I said, ‘I do not recognise that (to be happening) among us’. So Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘So there is nothing, then’. I said, ‘So (it is) the destruction, then?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Surely the people have not been Given their forbearance yet’.
