2ـ وَعَنْهُ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الْمَلِكِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ
قُلْتُ لَهُ أُعْطِي الرَّجُلَ مِنَ الزَّكَاةِ ثَمَانِينَ دِرْهَماً قَالَ نَعَمْ وَزِدْهُ قُلْتُ أُعْطِيهِ مِائَةً قَالَ نَعَمْ وَأَغْنِهِ إِنْ قَدَرْتَ أَنْ تُغْنِيَهُ.
