[11] Reliance upon Allah brings Sufficiency: عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ وَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ جَمِيعاً عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جَبَلَةَ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ وَهْبٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) قَالَ مَنْ أُعْطِيَ ثَلَاثاً لَمْ يُمْنَعْ ثَلَاثاً مَنْ أُعْطِيَ الدُّعَاءَ أُعْطِيَ الْإِجَابَةَ وَ مَنْ أُعْطِيَ الشُّكْرَ أُعْطِيَ الزِّيَادَةَ وَ مَنْ أُعْطِيَ التَّوَكُّلَ أُعْطِيَ الْكِفَايَةَ A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, and Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, altogether from Yahya Bin Al Mubarak, (It has been narrated) from Abdullah Bin Jabala, from Muawiya Bin Wahab, from Abu Abdullah -asws having said: ‘The one who gives three (things) would not be denied three (things) – The one who gives the supplication would be Given the answer, and the one gives the thanks would be Given the increase, and the one who gives the reliance would be Given the sufficient’.
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَ تَلَوْتَ كِتَابَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ وَ مَنْ يَتَوَكَّلْ عَلَى اللَّهِ فَهُوَ حَسْبُهُ وَ قَالَ لَئِنْ شَكَرْتُمْ لَأَزِيدَنَّكُمْ وَ قَالَ ادْعُونِي أَسْتَجِبْ لَكُمْ. Then he -asws said: ‘Did you recite the Book of Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic [65:3] and whoever relies upon Allah, He is sufficient for him ?’ And he -asws said: ‘ [14:7] If you are grateful, I would Increase it more for you . And He -azwj Said [40:60] And your Lord says: Call upon Me, I will Answer you ’.
[12] One should not rely on others: مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْحَسَنِ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ الرَّوَاجِنِيِّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ مُوسَى بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بِيَنْبُعَ وَ قَدْ نَفِدَتْ نَفَقَتِي فِي بَعْضِ الْأَسْفَارِ فَقَالَ لِي بَعْضُ وُلْدِ الْحُسَيْنِ مَنْ تُؤَمِّلُ لِمَا قَدْ نَزَلَ بِكَ فَقُلْتُ مُوسَى بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ إِذاً لَا تُقْضَى حَاجَتُكَ ثُمَّ لَا تُنْجَحُ طَلِبَتُكَ قُلْتُ وَ لِمَ ذَاكَ قَالَ لِأَنِّي قَدْ وَجَدْتُ فِي بَعْضِ كُتُبِ آبَائِي أَنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ يَقُولُ ثُمَّ ذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ أَمْلِ عَلَيَّ فَأَمْلَاهُ عَلَيَّ فَقُلْتُ لَا وَ اللَّهِ مَا أَسْأَلُهُ حَاجَةً بَعْدَهَا.
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Muhammad Bin Al Hassan, from one of our companions, from Abbad Bin Yaqoub Al Rawwajiny, from Saeed Bin Abdul Rahman who said, ‘I was with Musa Bin Abdullah at Yanbu, and my expense monies had depleted in one of the journeys.
