Chapter on the Virtue of Generosity and Munificence
وَ قَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «مَنْ يَضْمَنُ لِي أَرْبَعَةً بِأَرْبَعَةِ أَبْيَاتٍ فِي اَلْجَنَّةِ أَنْفِقْ وَ لاَ تَخَفْ فَقْراً وَ أَنْصِفِ اَلنَّاسَ مِنْ نَفْسِكَ وَ أَفْشِ اَلسَّلاَمَ فِي اَلْعَالَمِ وَ اُتْرُكِ اَلْمِرَاءَ وَ إِنْ كُنْتَ مُحِقّاً».
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "Whoever guarantees me four things, I will guarantee for him four chambers in Paradise: Spend and do not fear poverty, treat people with fairness, spread peace throughout the world, and abandon arguments, even if you are right."
