سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) يَقُولُ مَنْ طَلَبَ قَلِيلَ الرِّزْقِ كَانَ ذَلِكَ دَاعِيَهُ إِلَى اجْتِلَابِ كَثِيرٍ مِنَ الرِّزْقِ [وَ مَنْ تَرَكَ قَلِيلًا مِنَ الرِّزْقِ كَانَ ذَلِكَ دَاعِيَهُ إِلَى ذَهَابِ كَثِيرٍ مِنَ الرِّزْقِ] .


Translation

Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Yaqoub Bin Yazeed, from Muhammad Bin Murazim, from a man, from Ishaq Bin Ammar who said, ‘I heard Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> saying: ‘The one who seeks the little sustenance, that would be inviting him to bringing a lot (a bigger amount) from the sustenance; (and the one who neglects a little (sale/project/income) from the sustenance, that would be inviting him to the going away of a lot from the sustenance)’.
