11. Sahl ibn Ziyad has narrated from al-Haytham ibn abu Masruq from Muhammad ibn ’Umar ibn Bazi’ from Ahmad ibn ‘A’idh from Kulayb al-Saydawiy who has said the following
“This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), to pray for me for sustenance; my affairs are turning to the worse.’ He (the Imam) quickly said, ‘No, you must go out and work to make a living.’”
11- سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْهَيْثَمِ بْنِ أَبِي مَسْرُوقٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ عَائِذٍ عَنْ كُلَيْبٍ الصَّيْدَاوِيِّ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) ادْعُ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِي فِي الرِّزْقِ فَقَدِ الْتَاثَتْ عَلَيَّ أُمُورِي فَأَجَابَنِي مُسْرِعاً لا اخْرُجْ فَاطْلُبْ.
