2ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ حُسَيْنِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ وَمُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ وَغَيْرِهِمَا عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) مَنِ اتَّخَذَ مَحْمِلاً لِلْحَجِّ كَانَ كَمَنْ رَبَطَ فَرَساً فِي سَبِيلِ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.
2. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Husayn ibn ‘Uthman and Muhammad ibn abu Hamzah and others besides the two from Ishaq ibn ‘Ammar who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ‘One who prepares a carriage (carried on camel back) for al-Hajj is like one who prepares a horse to be used in the way of Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious.”’
