: قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ "مَا فَعَلَ عُمَرُ بْنُ مُسْلِمٍ " قُلْتُ جُعِلْتُ فِدَاكَ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى اَلْعِبَادَةِ وَ تَرَكَ اَلتِّجَارَةَ فَقَالَ "وَيْحَهُ أَ مَا عَلِمَ أَنَّ تَارِكَ اَلطَّلَبِ لاَ يُسْتَجَابُ لَهُ دَعْوَةٌ، إِنَّ قَوْماً مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ لَمَّا نَزَلَتْ: وَ مَنْ يَتَّقِ اَللّٰهَ يَجْعَلْ لَهُ مَخْرَجاً وَ يَرْزُقْهُ مِنْ حَيْثُ لاٰ يَحْتَسِبُ أَغْلَقُوا اَلْأَبْوَابَ وَ أَقْبَلُوا عَلَى اَلْعِبَادَةِ وَ قَالُوا قَدْ كُفِينَا فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهِمْ فَقَالَ "مَا حَمَلَكُمْ عَلَى مَا صَنَعْتُمْ" قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ تَكَفَّلَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ بِأَرْزَاقِنَا فَأَقْبَلْنَا عَلَى اَلْعِبَادَةِ فَقَالَ "إِنَّهُ مَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ لَمْ يَسْتَجِبِ اَللَّهُ لَهُ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالطَّلَبِ" ثُمَّ قَالَ "إِنِّي لَأُبْغِضُ اَلرَّجُلَ فَاغِراً فَاهُ إِلَى رَبِّهِ يَقُولُ اُرْزُقْنِي وَ يَتْرُكُ اَلطَّلَبَ" ".

Hadith.3721 - Harun ibn Hamzah narrated from Ali ibn Abdul Aziz who said: Abu Abdillah (as) asked: "What has Umar ibn Muslim done?" I said: "May I be your ransom! He has devoted himself to worship and abandoned trade." Imam (as) said: "Woe to him! Does he not know that the one who abandons seeking sustenance will not have his supplication answered? Indeed, some of the companions of the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family), when the verse was revealed; 'And whoever fears Allah (swt), He will make a way out for him, and provide for him from where he does not expect' (Surah At-Talaq 65:2-3), they locked their doors and devoted themselves to worship, saying, 'We have been guaranteed provision.' When the Messenger of Allah (swt) (peace be upon him and his family) heard about this, he sent for them and said: 'What led you to do what you have done?' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah (swt), Allah (swt), the Mighty and Exalted, has guaranteed our provision, so we have devoted ourselves to worship.' He (sw) said: 'Whoever does this, Allah (swt) will not answer his supplication. You must continue seeking sustenance.' Then Imam (as) said: 'I hate a man who sits idle, opening his mouth to his Lord (azj), saying, "Provide for me," while he abandons seeking sustenance.'"
