Earning in Unlawful ways

7- عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَمَّنْ ذَكَرَهُ عَنْ دَاوُدَ الصَّرْمِيِّ قَالَ قَالَ أَبُو الْحَسَنِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يَا دَاوُدُ إِنَّ الْحَرَامَ لا يَنْمِي وَإِنْ نَمَى لا يُبَارَكُ لَهُ فِيهِ وَمَا أَنْفَقَهُ لَمْ يُؤْجَرْ عَلَيْهِ وَمَا خَلَّفَهُ كَانَ زَادَهُ إِلَى النَّارِ.
7. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from Dawud al-Sarmiy who has said the following: “Abu al-Hassan عليه السلام, once said to me, £ 0 Dawud, unlawful earnings do not grow. Even if anything grows, it does not have any blessings for him: what he spends does not bring any reward for him and what he leaves behind becomes his supplies to the fire/”
