Arabic text

عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْهَيْثَمِ بْنِ أَبِي مَسْرُوقٍ النَّهْدِيِّ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِلرِّضَا (عليه السلام) إِنَّ النَّاسَ رَوَوْا أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ (صلى الله عليه وآله) كَانَ إِذَا أَخَذَ فِي طَرِيقٍ رَجَعَ فِي غَيْرِهِ فَهَكَذَا كَانَ يَفْعَلُ قَالَ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ فَأَنَا أَفْعَلُهُ كَثِيراً فَافْعَلْهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي أَمَا إِنَّهُ أَرْزَقُ لَكَ.

Translation

124. A number of our companions, from Sahl Bin Ziyad, from Al-Haysam Bin Abu Masrouq Al-Nahdy, from Musa Bin Umar Bin Bazi’e who said: ‘I said to Al-Ridha (asws) that, ‘The people are reporting that the Rasool Allah (saww), whenever he (saww) used to take to a road, would return via another road. So this is what he (saww) used to do’. He (asws) said: ‘Yes, as I (asws) do so quite frequently, so do it’. Then he (asws) said to me: ‘But rather, it is better for your sustenance’.
