وَ رَوَى اَلْأَصْبَغُ بْنُ نُبَاتَةَ عَنْ أَمِيرِ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: "لِلْمُسْرِفِ ثَلاَثُ عَلاَمَاتٍ يَأْكُلُ مَا لَيْسَ لَهُ وَ يَشْتَرِي مَا لَيْسَ لَهُ وَ يَلْبَسُ مَا لَيْسَ لَهُ".
Al-Asbagh ibn Nubata narrated from Commander of the Faithful عليه السلام that he said: "The extravagant person has three signs: he eats what does not belong to him, buys what does not belong to him, and wears what does not belong to him."
