1 hadith
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ النَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنِ السَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (عليه السلام) قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) مَا أَشَدَّ حُزْنَ النِّسَاءِ وَ أَبْعَدَ فِرَاقَ الْمَوْتِ وَ أَشَدُّ مِنْ ذَلِكَ كُلِّهِ فَقْرٌ يَتَمَلَّقُ صَاحِبُهُ ثُمَّ لَا يُعْطَى شَيْئاً.
273. Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al-nawfaly, from Al-Sakuny, who has narrated the following: Abu Abdullah عليه الصلاة والسلام has said that the Rasool Allah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم said: ‘There is nothing more intense than the grief of a woman, nor anything more remote than the separation of the death, and more intense than all of that is poverty. One flatters his companion, who then does not give him anything’.
