جَاءَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سِنَانٍ فَقَالَ هَلْ عِنْدَكَ شَيْءٌ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فَبَعَثْتُ ابْنِي فَأَعْطَيْتُهُ دِرْهَماً يَشْتَرِي بِهِ لَحْماً وَ بَيْضاً فَقَالَ لِي أَيْنَ أَرْسَلْتَ ابْنَكَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ رُدَّهُ رُدَّهُ عِنْدَكَ زَيْتٌ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ قَالَ هَاتِهِ فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ع يَقُولُ هَلَكَ امْرُؤٌ احْتَقَرَ لِأَخِيهِ مَا يَحْضُرُهُ وَ هَلَكَ امْرُؤٌ احْتَقَرَ لِأَخِيهِ مَا قَدَّمَ إِلَيْهِ.

3. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Muhammad ibn ’Isma‘il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Safwan ibn Yahya who has said the following: “Once ‘Abd Allah ibn Sinan came to me and asked, ‘Do you have anything?’ I replied, ‘Yes, I have something.’ I then sent my son and gave him two dirham to buy meat and eggs. He asked, ‘Where did you send your son?’ I then informed him about it. He said, ‘Call him back. Do you have any oil?’ I replied, ‘Yes, we have oil.’ He then said, ‘Bring it; I heard abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), saying, “A man who looks down on what his brother (in belief) brings for him is ruined and so also is one who looks down on what he brings for his brother (in belief).”’
