One Who Distributes Charity Has a Share in Rewards with the Donor of Charity

2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ أَبِي نَهْشَلٍ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ لَوْ جَرَى الْمَعْرُوفُ عَلَى ثَمَانِينَ كَفّاً لأُجِرُوا كُلُّهُمْ فِيهِ مِنْ غَيْرِ أَنْ يُنْقَصَ صَاحِبُهُ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْئاً.
2. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from his father from abu Nahshal from those whom he has mentioned who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said that even if a virtuous matter passes through eighty hands, all of them earn a reward without any reduction in the reward of the initiator of such a virtuous matter.”
