5ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَرَفَةَ قَالَ قَالَ لِيَ الرِّضَا (عَلَيهِ السَّلام)
وَيْحَكَ يَا ابْنَ عَرَفَةَ اعْمَلُوا لِغَيْرِ رِيَاءٍ وَلا سُمْعَةٍ فَإِنَّهُ مَنْ عَمِلَ لِغَيْرِ الله وَكَلَهُ الله إِلَى مَا عَمِلَ وَيْحَكَ مَا عَمِلَ أَحَدٌ عَمَلاً إِلا رَدَّاهُ الله إِنْ خَيْراً فَخَيْرٌ وَإِنْ شَرّاً فَشَرٌّ.
5. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Muhammad ibn ‘Isa ibn ‘Ubayd from Muhammad ibn ‘Arafah who has said the following:
“Once al-Rida 
said to me, ‘Woe upon you, O ibn ‘Arafah, you must work without showing off and publicity; those who work for anyone other than Allah, He assigns him to whomever he has worked. Woe upon you, whatever one does, Allah returns it back, good (result) if it is good and evil (results) if it is bad.’”
