Al-Kāfi|Volume 6|Book 5|Chapter 97
عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَنَانِ بْنِ سَدِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ كَانَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ ( عليه السلام ) يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَرَى الرَّجُلَ تَمْرِيّاً لِحُبِّ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) التَّمْرَ .
3. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Hanan ibn Sadir from his father who has said the following: “Ali ibn al-Husayn, ‘Alayhim al-Salam, loved to see a man who liked (worked with) dates because of the love of the Messenger for Allah for dates.’”
