Hadith 462
Hadith.3579 - Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as), said: "I find myself despising a man who faces difficulties in earning a livelihood, yet he lies on his back and says, 'O Allah (swt), provide for me,' while neglecting to go out into the land and seek Allah's (swt) bounty. Even the smallest ant comes out of its hole to seek its sustenance."
3579 - وَ قَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ : "إِنِّي أَجِدُنِي أَمْقُتُ اَلرَّجُلَ يَتَعَذَّرُ عَلَيْهِ اَلْمَكَاسِبُ فَيَسْتَلْقِي عَلَى قَفَاهُ وَ يَقُولُ اَللَّهُمَّ اُرْزُقْنِي وَ يَدَعُ أَنْ يَنْتَشِرَ فِي اَلْأَرْضِ وَ يَلْتَمِسَ مِنْ فَضْلِ اَللَّهِ وَ اَلذَّرَّةُ تَخْرُجُ مِنْ جُحْرِهَا تَلْتَمِسُ رِزْقَهَا ".
