3595 - وَ رُوِيَ عَنِ اَلْفَضْلِ بْنِ أَبِي قُرَّةَ قَالَ : دَخَلْنَا عَلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ هُوَ يَعْمَلُ فِي حَائِطٍ لَهُ فَقُلْنَا جَعَلَنَا اَللَّهُ فِدَاكَ دَعْنَا نَعْمَلْ لَكَ أَوْ تَعْمَلْهُ اَلْغِلْمَانُ قَالَ "لاَ دَعُونِي فَإِنِّي أَشْتَهِي أَنْ يَرَانِيَ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ أَعْمَلُ بِيَدِي وَ أَطْلُبُ اَلْحَلاَلَ فِي أَذَى نَفْسِي".
Hadith.3595 - It is narrated from Al-Fadl ibn Abi Qurrah:
"We entered upon Abu Abdullah while he was working in his garden.
We said: 'May Allah (swt) make us your ransom! Let us work for you, or let the servants handle it.'
Imam
replied: 'No, leave me to it, for I desire that Allah (swt), the Almighty and Majestic, sees me working with my own hands and seeking lawful sustenance, even if it causes hardship to myself.'"
