وَ عَنْهُ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ اَلنَّوْفَلِيِّ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ اَلسَّكُونِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ:» لاَ تَقْطَعُوا عَلَى اَلسَّائِلِ مَسْأَلَتَهُ فَلَوْلاَ أَنَّ اَلْمَسَاكِينَ يَكْذِبُونَ مَا أَفْلَحَ مَنْ رَدَّهُمْ«.
And from him, from Ali ibn Ibrahim, from his father, from al-Husayn ibn Yazid al-Nawfali, from Ismail ibn Abi Ziyad al-Sakuni, from Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, peace be upon him, who said:
Imam عليه السلام said: “The Messenger of Allah سبحانه وتعالى, Allah's سبحانه وتعالى blessings be upon him and his family, said: ‘Do not cut off the beggar in his asking, for were it not that the needy lie, the one who turned them away would not succeed.’"
