۞
Abdullah ibn Ajlan quoted on the authority of al-Sokuni that someone told Imam Baqir (a.s)
“How should I sometimes divide something I want to give my friends.” The Imam (a.s) replied: “Use their superiority in religiousness, knowledge and jurisprudence as measures of priority to divide it between them.”
عن عبد الله بن عجلان عن السكوني قال
قلت لأبي جعفر (عليه السلام): ربما قسمت الشئ بين أصحابي أصلهم به، فكيف أعطيهم؟ فقال: أعطهم على الهجرة في الدين والفضل والفقه.
