Hadith 695
۞
3. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from Muhammad ibn Ziyad from Hakam ibn Ayman from Sadaqah al-Ahdab from Abu ‘Abdillah (a.s.) who has said the following
“Helping to meet the needs of a believer is better than setting free one thousand slaves and better than donating one thousand horses loaded (with good) in the way of Allah.’’ Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Muhammad ibn Ziyad a Hadith similar to the two above Ahadith.
3ـ عَنْهُ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَكَمِ بْنِ أَيْمَنَ عَنْ صَدَقَةَ الأحْدَبِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
قَضَاءُ حَاجَةِ الْمُؤْمِنِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عِتْقِ أَلْفِ رَقَبَةٍ وَخَيْرٌ مِنْ حُمْلانِ أَلْفِ فَرَسٍ فِي سَبِيلِ الله. عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ مِثْلَ الْحَدِيثَيْنِ.
