Ḥusayn b. Saʿīd al-Ahwāzī · The Rights of a Believer on a Fellow Believer.
104 - وعن أمير المؤمنين (ع) قال قَد فرضَ اللهُ التّمحُّلَ على الأبرار في كتابِ الله. قيل: وما التمحل؟ قال إذا كان وجهُك آثرَ عن وجهِه التمستَ لهُ. وقال (ع) في قول الله (جلّ جلاله): ﴿ وَيُؤْثِرُونَ عَلَى أَنفُسِهِمْ وَلَوْ كَانَ بِهِمْ خَصَاصَةٌ ﴾ قال لا تستأثِر عليهِ بما هو أحوجُ إلَيه منكَ.
104. It has been reported that Amir al-Mu'minin (a.s) said: 'Allah, in His Book, has made forbearance obligatory on the righteous.' Some asked, 'What does forbearance constitute?' 'It is when you request others for those who are less needy than you yourself,' he replied.Concerning the words of Allah [M.G]: 'They prefer others to themselves even if they themselves are needy [Holy Quran 59/9],' he (a.s) said, 'Do not prefer yourself to him (i.e. your brother-in-faith) in what he is in greater need of than you.'
