لَا تَدْخُلْ لِأَخِيكَ فِي أَمْرٍ مَضَرَّتُهُ عَلَيْكَ أَعْظَمُ مِنْ مَنْفَعَتِهِ لَهُ قَالَ ابْنُ سِنَانٍ يَكُونُ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ دَيْنٌ كَثِيرٌ وَ لَكَ مَالٌ فَتُؤَدِّي عَنْهُ فَيَذْهَبُ مَالُكَ وَ لَا تَكُونُ قَضَيْتَ عَنْهُ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Huzeyfa Bin Mansour, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘You should not enter in a matter of your brother whose harm is greater upon you than its benefit for him (of your help)’. Ibn Sinan (the narrator) said, ‘ (It is like) if there happens to be a lot of debt upon the man and for you is (some) wealth, and if you (try to) pay it off on his behalf, so your wealth goes away, but even then his debt is not cleared’.
