8- عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ رَفَعَهُ قَالَ قَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) إِنَّ الأشْيَاءَ لَمَّا ازْدَوَجَتْ ازْدَوَجَ الْكَسَلُ وَالْعَجْزُ فَنُتِجَا بَيْنَهُمَا الْفَقْرَ.
8. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated in a marfu’ manner the following: “Amir al-Mu’minin عليه السلام, has said, ‘When things (works) double, laziness and failure join hands, and they both give birth to poverty.’”
