حکمت 319: ای فرزند! من از تهیدستی بر تو هراسناکم، از… · Saying 319

وَ قَالَ (عليه السلام): لِابْنِهِ مُحَمَّدِ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ يَا بُنَيَّ إِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَيْكَ الْفَقْرَ فَاسْتَعِذْ بِاللَّهِ مِنْهُ فَإِنَّ الْفَقْرَ مَنْقَصَةٌ لِلدِّينِ مَدْهَشَةٌ لِلْعَقْلِ دَاعِيَةٌ لِلْمَقْتِ

Amir al-Mu'minin, peace be upon him, said to his son Muhammad ibn al- Hanafiyyah: O My son! I fear lest destitution overtakes you. So, you should seek Allah's protection from it, because destitution is deficiency of religious belif, perplexity of intelligence, and it is conducive to hatred of obstinate people.
