Arabic text

3ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ زَيْدٍ الشَّحَّامِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ أَحْسِنُوا جِوَارَ نِعَمِ الله وَاحْذَرُوا أَنْ تَنْتَقِلَ عَنْكُمْ إِلَى غَيْرِكُمْ أَمَا إِنَّهَا لَمْ تَنْتَقِلْ عَنْ أَحَدٍ قَطُّ فَكَادَتْ أَنْ تَرْجِعَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَ وَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) يَقُولُ قَلَّ مَا أَدْبَرَ شَيْ‏ءٌ فَأَقْبَلَ.

Translation

3. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from al-Hassan ibn Mahbub from Zayd al-Shahham who has said the following: “I heard abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), say, ‘You should keep good neighborly relations with the bounties of Allah, and guard them being transferred from you to others; if bounties transfer away from a person, they very rarely return. Ali (a.s.), would say, “It is very rare for something to come forward once it goes away.’””

Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — published with the edition, reproduced verbatim.
