4. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from ibn Faddal from Ali ibn ‘Uqbah from Mahdiy who has said the following
“Abu al-Hassan Musa (a.s.), has said, ‘A generous person who possesses good moral discipline is under Allah’s protection and Allah does not leave such a person alone until He admits him to Paradise. Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, has never sent a prophet or an executor of the will of the prophets who is not generous. All the people of good deeds were generous. My father continued to encourage me to be generous until he passed away. He said, ‘One who pays zakat completely and pays it to properly deserving persons is not questioned wherefrom he has earned his wealth.’”
4ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ مَهْدِيٍّ عَنْ أَبِي الْحَسَنِ مُوسَى (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ
السَّخِيُّ الْحَسَنُ الْخُلُقِ فِي كَنَفِ الله لا يَسْتَخْلِي الله مِنْهُ حَتَّى يُدْخِلَهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَمَا بَعَثَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ نَبِيّاً وَلا وَصِيّاً إِلاَّ سَخِيّاً وَمَا كَانَ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الصَّالِحِينَ إِلاَّ سَخِيّاً وَمَا زَالَ أَبِي يُوصِينِي بِالسَّخَاءِ حَتَّى مَضَى وَقَالَ مَنْ أَخْرَجَ مِنْ مَالِهِ الزَّكَاةَ تَامَّةً فَوَضَعَهَا فِي مَوْضِعِهَا لَمْ يُسْأَلْ مِنْ أَيْنَ اكْتَسَبْتَ مَالَكَ.
