12ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) قَالَ مَا فَتَحَ الله عَلَى عَبْدٍ بَاباً مِنْ أَمْرِ الدُّنْيَا إِلا فَتَحَ الله عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الْحِرْصِ مِثْلَهُ.
12. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Hisham ibn Salim from Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام who has said the following: “With every door to the worldly affairs that Allah opens to a servant. He also opens a door of greed to him.”
