سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ إِنِّي لَأَعْمَلُ فِي بَعْضِ ضِيَاعِي حَتَّى أَعْرَقَ وَ إِنَّ لِي مَنْ يَكْفِينِي لِيَعْلَمَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَنِّي أَطْلُبُ الرِّزْقَ الْحَلَالَ .
Translation
A number of our companions, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Husayn Bin saeed, from Al Qasim Bin Muhammad, from Ali Bin Abu Hamza, from Abu Baseer who said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘I<sup>asws</sup> tend to work in a site of mine<sup>asws</sup> until I<sup>asws</sup> sweat, altthough there are for me<sup>asws</sup> ones who can suffice for me<sup>asws</sup>, in order for Allah<sup>azwj</sup> to Know that I<sup>asws</sup> seek the Permissible livelihood’.
