8. Ahmad ibn Muhammad has narrated from Muhammad ibn Ali from Muhammad ibn Sinan from Abu al-Hassan (a.s.), who has said the following
“This is about the words of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, ‘It (moderation) was in between . . .’ (25:67), the Imam said, ‘Al-Qawam (moderation) is a Benevolent Assistance,’ ‘. . . proportionate to the abilities of a wealthy and poor person is a right upon the people of good deeds.’
8ـ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِنَانٍ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) فِي قَوْلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَكانَ بَيْنَ ذلِكَ قَواماً قَالَ
الْقَوَامُ هُوَ الْمَعْرُوفُ عَلَى الْمُوسِعِ قَدَرُهُ وَعَلَى الْمُقْتِرِ قَدَرُهُ مَتاعاً بِالْمَعْرُوفِ حَقًّا عَلَى الْمُحْسِنِينَ عَلَى قَدْرِ عِيَالِهِ وَمَئُونَتِهِمُ الَّتِي هِيَ صَلاحٌ لَهُ وَلَهُمْ وَلا يُكَلِّفُ الله نَفْساً إِلاَّ ما آتاها.
