3-234 Al-Khalil ibn Ahmad narrated that Ibn Sa’ed quoted Al-Hassan ibn Arafeh, on the authority of Umar ibn Abdul Rahman Abu Hafs al-Abbar, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Juhadat, on the authority of Bakir ibn Abdullah al-Madani, on the authority of Abdullah ibn Amr that the
Prophet (MGB) said, “Be aware of stinginess coupled with greed (covetousness of the soul), since it really destroys those before you. It will instruct you to lie and you will lie; it will instruct you to oppress and you will oppress; and it will instruct you to cut off ties and you will cut off ties.”
3-234 حدثنا الخليل بن أحمد قال: حدثنا ابن صاعد قال: حدثنا الحسن بن عرفة قال: حدثنا عمر بن عبدالرحمن أبوحفص الابار، عن محمد بن جحادة عن بكير ابن عبد الله المدني، عن عبد الله بن عمرو، عن النبي صلى الله عليه وآله قال
إياكم والشح فانما هلك من كان قبلكم بالشح، أمرهم بالكذب فكذبوا، وأمرهم بالظلم فظلموا، وأمرهم بالقطيعة فقطعوا
