Chapter on Livelihoods, Earnings, Profits, and Professions
وَ رَوَى عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ اَلْجُعْفِيُّ عَنْ أَبِي جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: "مَنْ آجَرَ نَفْسَهُ فَقَدْ حَظَرَ عَلَيْهَا اَلرِّزْقَ وَ كَيْفَ لاَ يَحْظُرُ عَلَيْهَا اَلرِّزْقَ وَ مَا أَصَابَ فَهُوَ لِرَبٍّ آجَرَهُ".
Abdullah bin Muhammad Al-Ju'fi narrated from Abu Ja'far Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir عليه السلام, who said: 'Whoever hires himself out has restricted his sustenance. And how could he not restrict his sustenance when whatever he earns belongs to the master who hired him?'
