مَنْ عَظُمَتْ عَلَيْهِ النِّعْمَةُ اشْتَدَّتْ مَئُونَةُ النَّاسِ عَلَيْهِ فَإِنْ هُوَ قَامَ بِمَئُونَتِهِمْ اجْتَلَبَ زِيَادَةَ النِّعْمَةِ عَلَيْهِ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَ إِنْ لَمْ يَفْعَلْ فَقَدْ عَرَّضَ النِّعْمَةَ لِزَوَالِهَا .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Haroun Bin Muslim, from Mas’ada Bin Sadaqa, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘The one upon whom the Bounties are magnified, should be more inclined to offer those to people. So if he were to stand with their provision, it would bring about an increase of the Bounties upon him from Allah<sup>azwj</sup>, and if he does not do so, so he has turned away those Bounties’.
