My father, Allah may have mercy upon him, narrated to us from Sa’d bin Abdullah from … al-Harithi that Abu Abdullah (a) said
Anyone who enjoys stinginess, envy, and cowardice cannot be believer. The believer is never coward, stingy, or acquisitive.
أَبِي رَحِمَهُ اَللَّهُ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَنِ اَلْحَارِثِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ ع قَالَ
لاَ يُؤْمِنُ رَجُلٌ فِيهِ اَلشُّحُّ وَ اَلْحَسَدُ وَ اَلْجُبْنُ وَ لاَ يَكُونُ اَلْمُؤْمِنُ جَبَاناً وَ لاَ شَحِيحاً وَ لاَ حَرِيصاً.
