John Shaqi

قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) لَا يَنْبَغِي لِلْمُؤْمِنِ أَنْ يُذِلَّ نَفْسَهُ قُلْتُ بِمَا يُذِلُّ نَفْسَهُ قَالَ يَدْخُلُ فِيمَا يَتَعَذَّرُ مِنْهُ .


Translation

A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Khalid, from his father, from Muhammad Bin Sinan, from Mufazzal Bin Umar who said, ‘Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘It is not befitting for the Believer that he humiliates himself’. I said, ‘With what does he humiliate himself?’ He<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘He indulges in what he cannot do from his (resources)’.
