٦ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ حَمْزَةَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ قَالَ كَتَبْتُ إِلَى أَبِي مُحَمَّدٍ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) لِمَ فَرَضَ الله الصَّوْمَ فَوَرَدَ الْجَوَابُ لِيَجِدَ الْغَنِيُّ مَضَضَ الْجُوعِ فَيَحِنَّ عَلَى الْفَقِيرِ.
6. Ali ibn Muhammad and Muhammad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah has narrated from Ishaq ibn Muhammad from Hamzah ibn Muhammad who has said the following: “I once wrote to abu Muhammad , and asked, ‘Why has Allah made fasting obligatory?’ The answer was, ‘It is made obligatory so that affluent people can feel the taste of hunger and become compassionate to the poor.’”
