201 – Al-Mufaddal ibn Ghassan narrated to me, from Sufyan ibn ʿUyaynah, who said: Ali ibn Abi Talib—may Allah have mercy on him—said: ⦗129⦘ “A man is not truly the steward of his household until he is unconcerned about what he uses to quell the pangs of hunger and indifferent as to which of his two garments wears out.”
٢٠١ - حَدَّثَنِي الْمُفَضَّلُ بْنُ غَسَّانَ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ بْنِ عُيَيْنَةَ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ يَرْحَمُهُ اللَّهُ: ⦗١٢٩⦘ «لَا يَكُونُ الرَّجُلُ قَيِّمَ أَهْلِهِ حَتَّى لَا يُبَالِي مَا سَدَّ بِهِ فَوْرَةَ الْجُوعِ، وَلَا يُبَالِي أَيُّ ثَوْبَيْهِ ابْتَذَلَ»
