933. hadíth

وَ رَوَى يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ اَلْمِيثَمِيِّ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يَقُولُ: "أَنْفِقْ وَ أَيْقِنْ بِالْخَلَفِ وَ اِعْلَمْ أَنَّهُ مَنْ لَمْ يُنْفِقْ فِي طَاعَةِ اَللَّهِ اُبْتُلِيَ بِأَنْ يُنْفِقَ فِي مَعْصِيَةِ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ مَنْ لَمْ يَمْشِ فِي حَاجَةِ وَلِيِّ اَللَّهِ اُبْتُلِيَ بِأَنْ يَمْشِيَ فِي حَاجَةِ عَدُوِّ اَللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ".

Yaqub ibn Yazid narrated from Ahmad ibn Al-Hasan Al-Mithami, from Al-Husayn ibn Abi Hamzah, who said: I heard Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) say: "Spend (in the way of Allah (swt)) and be certain of the replacement. Know that whoever does not spend in obedience to Allah (swt) will be tested by spending in disobedience to Allah (swt), the Almighty. And whoever does not walk to fulfill the need of a friend of Allah (swt) will be tested by walking to fulfill the need of an enemy of Allah (swt), the Almighty."
