14ـ إِسْحَاقُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ عَبَّاسِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ قَالَ قَعَدْتُ لابِي مُحَمَّدٍ (a.s) عَلَى ظَهْرِ الطَّرِيقِ فَلَمَّا مَرَّ بِي شَكَوْتُ إِلَيْهِ الْحَاجَةَ وَحَلَفْتُ لَهُ أَنَّهُ لَيْسَ عِنْدِي دِرْهَمٌ فَمَا فَوْقَهَا وَلا غَدَاءٌ وَلا عَشَاءٌ قَالَ فَقَالَ تَحْلِفُ بِالله كَاذِباً وَقَدْ دَفَنْتَ مِائَتَيْ دِينَارٍ وَلَيْسَ قَوْلِي هَذَا دَفْعاً لَكَ عَنِ الْعَطِيَّةِ أَعْطِهِ يَا غُلامُ مَا مَعَكَ فَأَعْطَانِي غُلامُهُ مِائَةَ دِينَارٍ ثُمَّ أَقْبَلَ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ لِي إِنَّكَ تُحْرَمُهَا أَحْوَجَ مَا تَكُونُ إِلَيْهَا يَعْنِي الدَّنَانِيرَ الَّتِي دَفَنْتُ وَصَدَقَ (a.s) وَكَانَ كَمَا قَالَ دَفَنْتُ مِائَتَيْ دِينَارٍ وَقُلْتُ يَكُونُ ظَهْراً وَكَهْفاً لَنَا فَاضْطُرِرْتُ ضَرُورَةً شَدِيدَةً إِلَى شَيْ‏ءٍ أُنْفِقُهُ وَانْغَلَقَتْ عَلَيَّ أَبْوَابُ الرِّزْقِ فَنَبَّشْتُ عَنْهَا فَإِذَا ابْنٌ لِي قَدْ عَرَفَ مَوْضِعَهَا فَأَخَذَهَا وَهَرَبَ فَمَا قَدَرْتُ مِنْهَا عَلَى شَيْ‏ءٍ.


14. Ishaq has said that narrated to him ’Isma‘il ibn Muhammad ibn Ali ibn ’Isma‘il ibn Ali ibn ‘Abdallah ibn ‘Abbass ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib who has said the following. “Once I sat on the side of the road waiting for abu Muhammad (a.s) to pass by so that I can present before him my complain against a need. When he was passing by I presented my complain before him and swore that I did not have even a Dirham, nothing for lunch or dinner.” The narrator has said that the Imam (a.s) said, “You falsely swore by Allah. You have buried two hundred Dinars. These my words are not to deny you any grants. Young man, give him whatever is with you. His servant, give me one hundred Dinars. He then turned to me and said, “You will be deprived of it in your worst days.” He meant those Dinars that I had buried for a difficult day. What he said was true. I had buried two hundred Dinars thinking that they would only be used in a very difficult day. When I faced such a difficult day and all the ways to find a living was closed I went to take out the two hundred Dinars but soon I found that there was not even a single Dinar. In fact, my son had learned about where the Dinars were buried and he had taken them and had ran away. I could not benefit from any of those Dinars.”
