۞
Imam Sadiq (a.s) said: “Nothing is worse than suddenly getting some property for a believer (since that will make him forget himself). Even worse than this is if his believing brother comes to him and asks to establish family relations through marriage, and he turns down his proposal by saying “No. We are richer than you are.”
عن أبي عبد الله (عليه السلام) قال
ما من رزية تدخل على عبد مسلم أشد عليه من مال يصيبه وأهون من ذلك أن يأتيه أخوه، فيقول: زوجني، فيقول: لا أفعل أنا أغنى منك.
