5. Muhammad ibn ali and others have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from Ali ibn al-Hakam from a man from Habib ibn abu Thabit who has said the following. “Honey and fig were brought to Amir al-Mu’minin (a.s.) from Hamadhan and al-Hulwan (places near Baghdad). He asked the his officers to call in the orphans. They were allowed to lick honey from the containers while he himself distributed them among the people. People asked, “Why should the orphans be allowed to lick the honey?” Amir al-Muminin (a.s.) replied, “The Imam is the father of the orphans. I just wanted to gave them a fatherly treat.”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
