815. Greed and Increase in Sustenance

2552.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : إنّ الرِّزقَ لا يَجُرُّهُ حِرصُ حَريصٍ ولا يَصرِفُهُ كَراهِيَةُ كارِهٍ .1

2552.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Sustenance cannot be pulled by the greed of an avaricious person nor repelled by the repugnance of a repugnant person.' 2

2553.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : اِعلَمُوا أنَّ عَبداً وإن ضَعُفَتْ حِيلَتُهُ ، ووَهَنَتْ مَكِيدَتُهُ أنَّهُ لَن يُنقَصَ مِمّا قَدَّرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ ، وإن قَوِيَ عَبدٌ في شِدَّةِ الحِيلَةِ وقُوَّةِ المَكِيدَة أ نّهُ لن يُزادَ عَلى‏ ما قَدَّرَ اللَّهُ لَهُ .3

2553.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'Know that even if a servant was devoid of shrewdness and was feeble in his schemes, it would not reduce the amount of sustenance that Allah has apportioned for him, and even if a servant were to be skilfully shrewd and crafty, it would not do anything to increase the sustenance that Allah has apportioned for him.' 4

2554.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : إن كانَ الرِّزقُ مَقسوماً فالحِرصُ لِماذا ؟!5

2554.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'Since sustenance is duly allotted, what is the use of greed?!' 6

2555.الإمامُ الصّادقُ عليه السلام : إنّ اللَّهَ تعالى‏ وَسَّعَ أرزاقَ الحَمقى‏ لِيَعتَبِرَ العُقَلاءُ ويَعلَمُوا أنّ الدنيا ليسَ يُنالُ ما فيها بِعَمَلٍ ولا حِيلَةٍ .7

2555.Imam al-Sadiq (AS) said, 'Verily Allah, most High, has abundantly distributed sustenance even to the fools, so that intelligent men may take a lesson from this and know that the wealth of this world cannot be obtained by work or cunning.' 8

814 - ضَمانُ الرِّزقِ‏

814. SUSTENANCE IS GUARANTEED

(وَما مِنْ دابَّةٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ إِلَّا عَلَى اللَّهِ رِزْقُها وَيَعْلَمُ مُسْتَقَرَّها وَمُسْتَوْدَعَها كُلٌّ فِي كِتابٍ مُّبِينٍ) .1

"There is no animal on the earth, but that its sustenance lies with Allah, and He knows its [enduring] abode and its temporary place of lodging. Everything is in a manifest Book." 2

2546.رسولُ اللَّهِ صلى اللَّه عليه وآله : لا تَتَشاغَلْ عمّا فُرِضَ علَيكَ بِما قد ضُمِنَ لَكَ فإنّهُ لَيسَ بفائتِكَ ما قد قُسِّمَ لَكَ ، ولَستَ بِلاحِقٍ ما قد زُوِيَ عنكَ .3

2546.The Prophet (SAWA) said, 'Do not preoccupy yourself away from the duties incumbent upon you in your bid to secure that which is guaranteed to you, for indeed neither will you miss out on that which has been apportioned for you, nor will you attain that which has been placed beyond your reach.' 4

2547.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : لِكُلِّ ذِي رَمَقٍ قُوتٌ .5

2547.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'Every living thing has been given its own provision.' 6

2548.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : فهذا غُرابٌ وهذا عُقابٌ ، وهذا حَمامٌ وهذا نَعامٌ ، دَعا كُلَّ طائرٍ باسمِهِ ، وكَفَلَ لَهُ برزقِهِ .7

2548.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'This is a crow and this is an eagle, this one a dove and this one an ostrich - He has given each bird an individual name and has guaranteed each one its sustenance.' 8

2549.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : عِيالُهُ الخَلائقُ ، ضَمِنَ أَرزاقَهُم، وقَدَّرَ أَقْواتَهُم .9

2549.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'His creatures are His dependants, for whom He has guaranteed the means of subsistence, and apportioned provisions.' 10

2550.الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام : اُطلُبُوا الرِّزقَ فإنّهُ مَضمونٌ لِطالِبِهِ .11

2550.Imam Ali (AS) said, 'Go out and seek your livelihood for it is guaranteed to the one who goes in search of it.' 12

2551.الإمامُ العسكريُّ عليه السلام : لا يَشغَلْكَ رِزقٌ مَضمونٌ عن عَمَلٍ مَفروضٍ .13

2551.Imam al-Askari (AS) said, 'Do not let [preoccupation with] a sustenance that is guaranteed avert you from an act that is incumbent.' 14
