جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ ( عليه السلام ) فَقَالَ إِنِّي أَهْدَيْتُ جَارِيَةً إِلَى الْكَعْبَةِ فَأُعْطِيتُ خَمْسَمِائَةِ دِينَارٍ فَمَا تَرَى قَالَ بِعْهَا ثُمَّ خُذْ ثَمَنَهَا ثُمَّ قُمْ عَلَى هَذَا الْحَائِطِ حَائِطِ الْحِجْرِ ثُمَّ نَادِ وَ أَعْطِ كُلَّ مُنْقَطَعٍ بِهِ وَ كُلَّ مُحْتَاجٍ مِنَ الْحَاجِّ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from Salih Bin Al Sandy, from Ja’far Bin Bashir, from Aban, from Abu Al Hassan, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘A man came over to Abu Ja’far<sup>asws</sup> and he said, ‘I gifted a slave girl to the Kabah and had given five hundred Dinars, so what is your<sup>asws</sup> view?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Sell her, then take her price and stand upon this wall, a wall of the (Black) Stone. Then call out and give everyone who has been cut off (by bandits), and every needy one from the pilgrims’.
