Chapter on the Virtue of Charity

وَ قَالَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «اِتَّبِعُوا قَوْلَ رَسُولِ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ إِنَّهُ قَالَ» «مَنْ فَتَحَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ بَابَ مَسْأَلَةٍ فَتَحَ اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ بَابَ فَقْرٍ.
Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام, said: "Follow the saying of the Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى (peace be upon him and his family) where he said: 'Whoever opens a door of begging for themselves, Allah سبحانه وتعالى will open for them a door of poverty.'"
