Hadith 1857
۞
7. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from certain persons of his people from Mu‘awiyah ibn Wahab who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), once saw me carrying grass. He (the Imam) said, ‘It is undesirable for a man of dignity to carry lowly things, thus people become bold against him.’”
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ قَالَ
رَآنِي أَبُو عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) وَ أَنَا أَحْمِلُ بَقْلًا فَقَالَ يُكْرَهُ لِلرَّجُلِ السَّرِيِّ أَنْ يَحْمِلَ الشَّيْءَ الدَّنِيَّ فَيُجْتَرَأَ عَلَيْهِ .
