hadith 1931
Imam Ali (AS) said, If you find from the needy people one who will carry your provision for you up to the Day of Resurrection and return it to you tomorrow when you need it most, then take the opportunity and give it to him, and increase the provisions that you give him [to carry for you] while you are able to, for it is possible that you may [at one time] seek him but not find him.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إذا وَجَدْتَ مِنْ أهْلِ الفاقَةِ مَنْ يَحْمِلُ لَكَ زادَكَ إلى يَوْمِ القِيمَةِ فَيُوَفّيكَ بِهِ غَداً حَيْثُ تَحْتاجُ إلَيْهِ فَأغْتَنِمْهُ وَ حَمِّلْهُ إيّاهُ وَ أكْثِرْ مِنْ تَزْويدِهِ وَأنْتَ قادِرٌ عَلَيْهِ فَلَعَلَّكَ أنْ تَطْلُبَهُ فَلا تَجِدْهُ
