شَهِدْتُ مُعَاذَ بْنَ كَثِيرٍ وَ قَالَ لِأَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) إِنِّي قَدْ أَيْسَرْتُ فَأَدَعُ التِّجَارَةَ فَقَالَ إِنَّكَ إِنْ فَعَلْتَ قَلَّ عَقْلُكَ أَوْ نَحْوَهُ .


Translation

Ahmad Bin Abdullah, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Abu Al Jahm, from Fuzayl Al Awr who said, ‘I witnessed Muaz Bin Kaseer and he said to Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, ‘I have become affluent, so I want to leave the business’. So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If you do, your intellect would be lost’ – or similar to it’.
