وَ رَوَى عُبَيْدُ بْنُ زُرَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: لَهُ "يَا عُبَيْدُ إِنَّ اَلسَّرَفَ يُورِثُ اَلْفَقْرَ وَ إِنَّ اَلْقَصْدَ يُورِثُ اَلْغِنَى".
Ubayd bin Zurarah narrated from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, that he said to him: 'O Ubayd, extravagance leads to poverty, and moderation leads to wealth.'
