سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ مِنَ النَّاسِ مَنْ رِزْقُهُ فِي التِّجَارَةِ وَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ رِزْقُهُ فِي السَّيْفِ وَ مِنْهُمْ مَنْ رِزْقُهُ فِي لِسَانِهِ .


Translation

Abu Ali Al Ashary, from one of his companions, from Ibrahim Bin Abdul Hameed, from Al Waleed Bin Sabeeh who said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘From the people there is one whose sustenance is in the business, and from them is one whose sustenance is in his sword, and from them is one whose sustenance is in his tongue’.
