Hadith 112
۞
5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Jamil who has narrated the following
“I once asked abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), about the case of a man who gives charity (which is not obligatory) to his small children; if he can take it back. He (the Imam) said, ‘No, because charity is for Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious.’”
5- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ جَمِيلٍ قَالَ
قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) الرَّجُلُ يَتَصَدَّقُ عَلَى وُلْدِهِ بِصَدَقَةٍ وَهُمْ صِغَارٌ أَلَهُ أَنْ يَرْجِعَ فِيهَا قَالَ لا الصَّدَقَةُ للهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
