2ـ وَعَنْهُمَا عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنِ الْعَلاءِ بْنِ رَزِينٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَجُلٌ لأَبِي جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) إِنَّ لِي ضَيْعَةً بِالْجَبَلِ أَسْتَغِلُّهَا فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ ثَلاثَ آلافِ دِرْهَمٍ فَأُنْفِقُ عَلَى عِيَالِي مِنْهَا أَلْفَيْ دِرْهَمٍ وَأَتَصَدَّقُ مِنْهَا بِأَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ فِي كُلِّ سَنَةٍ فَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) إِنْ كَانَتِ الأَلْفَانِ تَكْفِيهِمْ فِي جَمِيعِ مَا يَحْتَاجُونَ إِلَيْهِ لِسَنَتِهِمْ فَقَدْ نَظَرْتَ لِنَفْسِكَ وَوُفِّقْتَ لِرُشْدِكَ وَأَجْرَيْتَ نَفْسَكَ فِي حَيَاتِكَ بِمَنْزِلَةِ مَا يُوصِي بِهِ الْحَيُّ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ.
2. It is narrated from the two of them from al-Hassan ibn Mahbub from al-’Ala’ ibn Razin from Muhammad ibn Muslim who has said the following: “Once a man said to abu Ja’far , ‘I have a certain amount of property in the mountains from which I receive three thousand dirham profit every year. I spend two thousand dirham for my family and one thousand dirham for charity every year.’ Abu Ja’far
, then said, ‘If the two thousand is enough for all of their needs for the year, you have been considerate for yourself, had good opportunity to have the right guidance. You have executed a plan for yourself in your lifetime which is like what one plans in his will.’”
