حنان عن أبيه عن أبي جعفر عليه السلام قال: قال سمعته يقول اتى أبا ذر رجل فبشره بغنم له قد ولدت فقال يا أبا ذر: ابشر فقد ولدت غنمك وكثرت فقال: ما يسرني كثرتهما فما أحب ذلك فما قل منها وكفى أحب إلى مما كثروا إلهي انى سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله يقول: على حافتي الصراط يوم القيام الرحم والأمانة فإذا مر عليه الموصل للرحم والمؤدى للأمانة لم يتكفابه في النار.
24.Ḥanān narrated from his father, from Abū Jaʿfar  whom he heard saying “A man came to Abū Dharr and gave him good news of his sheep that had given birth. He said, ‘O Abā Dharr, I bring glad tidings that your sheep have reproduced and increased in number!’ He said, ‘I am not pleased by their increase in number and I do not like that. The few of them that are sufficient are more beloved to me than many that distract [me]. Verily I heard the Messenger of Allah (ṣ) say, “On the two sides of the path (ṣirāt) on the Day of Judgment will be the near of kin and the trusts, so when one who kept ties with the near of kin and returned the trusts passes by them, he will not be thrown by them into the Fire.”’”
