9. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from Muhammad ibn Ali from Muhammad ibn al-Fudayl from Musa ibn Bakr who has said the following
“Abu al-Hassan (a.s.), once said, ‘With moderation, one does not suffer poverty.’”
9ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْفُضَيْلِ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ بَكْرٍ قَالَ
قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) مَا عَالَ امْرُؤٌ فِي اقْتِصَادٍ.
