حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَی بْنِ الْمُتَوَکِّلِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ یَحْیَی عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ یَحْیَی بْنِ عِمْرَانَ الْأَشْعَرِیِّ یَرْفَعُهُ إِلَی أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع أَنَّهُ قَالَ لِبَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ أَ مَا تَدْخُلُ السُّوقَ أَ مَا تَرَی الْفَاکِهَهَ تُبَاعُ وَ الشَّیْ ءَ مِمَّا تَشْتَهِیهِ فَقُلْتُ بَلَی فَقَالَ أَمَا إِنَّ لَکَ بِکُلِّ مَا تَرَاهُ وَ لَا تَقْدِرُ عَلَی شِرَائِهِ وَ تَصْبِرُ عَلَیْهِ حَسَنَهً.

1. Imam Ja’far Sadiq (a.s.) asked one of his companions, “Are there any fruits in the market which you like and desire to have?” “Yes,” said he. Imam (a.s.) said, “If you see a thing, which is beyond your capacity to buy, be patient and you will get a reward for it.”
