pleasing, and who supports
others from his savings. "148
It is quote through the pious
student of Imam Jaffar Sadiq (ASWS), Abu Ba'seer
that: -
Sadiq-e-Ale Muhammad used
to say:-
"I used to work so laboriously
on my fields,
that I would be quenched in sweat, from head to
toe!"
While enumerating this, Hazrat
said:-
"So that Almighty Allah
may know this reality that, "I am desirous
of legitimate subsistence (ri'zq-e-ha'la-l) "149
11.5. Organization
and Method
In the events of life,
neither excess nor deficiency can be termed as
suitable! What so ever task does one undertake,
one has to work for it, while remaining with in
the (prescribed) limits.
For the provision of the means
of subsistence, a balanced attitude is necessary.
Experience show that, even quite reasonable persons,
once getting settled in their business, make "earnings"
as their ultimate goal! and due to this attitude,
are neither able to give time to other obligation,
nor could they pay heed to their other responsibilities!
And ultimately get isolated from the normal life,
and besides this have nothing left over for their
Hereafter!
It is really nice to play
a significant role in economic uplift and financial
prosperity, but this does not mean that, a man
turns to robot!
Sadiq-e-Ale Muhammad Hazrat
