رسول الله (صلی الله علیه و آله):

ألا و إنّ الرُّوحَ الأمينَ نَفَثَ في رُوعِي أنّهُ لَن تَمُوتَ نفسٌ حتّى تَستَكمِلَ رِزقَها ، فاتَّقُوا اللّهَ و أجمِلُوا في الطَّلَبِ ، و لا يَحمِلْ أحَدَكُم استِبطاءُ شَيءٍ مِنَ الرِّزقِ أن يَطلُبَهُ بغَيرِ حِلِّهِ ، فإنّهُ لا يُدرَكُ ما عِندَ اللّهِ إلاّ بطاعَتِهِ.

The Prophet Muhammad (S):

Verily the archangel Gabriel blew into my mind that no soul shall pass away before the depletion of his sustenance in this world, so be wary of your duty to Allah and seek your livelihood through decent means, and let not a delay in your provision cause any of you to seek it through unlawful means, for verily what is with Allah is only acquired through His obedience.

فيما ناجَى اللّهُ عَزَّ و جلَّ بهِ موسى عليه السلام : .... لا تَغبِطْ أحَدا بكَثرَةِ المالِ ؛ فإنَّ مَعَ كَثرَةِ المالِ تَكثُرُ الذُّنوبُ لِواجِبِ الحُقوقِ.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

In one of Allah's intimate conversations with Prophet Moses (AS), He said, O Moses, do not envy anyone for their abundant wealth, for when one’s wealth increases, so does his sins, due to its obligatory rights [they usually fail to fulfill].

الإمام جعفر الصادق (عليه السَّلام ):

لَو أنَّ النّاسَ أخَذوا ماأمَرَهُمُ اللّهُ بهِ فأنفَقوهُ فيما نَهاهُم عَنهُ ما قَبِلَهُ مِنهُم، ولو أخَذوا ما نَهاهُمُ اللّهُ عَنهُ فأنفَقوهُ فيما أمَرَهُمُ اللّهُ بهِ ما قَبِلَهُ مِنهُم؛ حتّى يأخُذوهُ مِن حَقٍّ ويُنفِقوهُ في حَقٍّ.

Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as):

If people earn whence Allah has ordered them to and spend it in that which He has forbidden, then He will not accept it from them. And if they earn what Allah has prohibited them from and spend it in that which He has ordered them to, He will not accept it from them either unless they take it from its rightful place and spend it in its rightful place.
