1. My father (rah) said: it was narrated to me by Ahmad b. Idris from Muhammad b. Ahmad from Ya’qub b. Yazid from Ibn Abi Najran who raised it to Abi Abdillah (a.s.) who said
“One who patches his clothes, stitches his shoes and carries his own luggage will remain away from pride.”
أَبِی ره قَالَ حَدَّثَنِی أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِدْرِیسَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ عَنْ یَعْقُوبَ بْنِ یَزِیدَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِی نَجْرَانَ یَرْفَعُهُ إِلَی أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع قَالَ
مَنْ رَقَعَ جَیْبَهُ وَ خَصَفَ نَعْلَهُ وَ حَمَلَ سِلْعَتَهُ فَقَدْ بَرِئَ مِنَ الْکِبْرِ.
