١ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ صَالِحِ بْنِ رَزِينٍ قَالَ دَفَعَ إِلَيَّ شِهَابُ بْنُ عَبْدِ رَبِّهِ دَرَاهِمَ مِنَ الزَّكَاةِ أَقْسِمُهَا فَأَتَيْتُهُ يَوْماً فَسَأَلَنِي هَلْ قَسَمْتَهَا فَقُلْتُ لا فَأَسْمَعَنِي كَلاماً فِيهِ بَعْضُ الْغِلْظَةِ فَطَرَحْتُ مَا كَانَ بَقِيَ مَعِي مِنَ الدَّرَاهِمِ وَقُمْتُ مُغْضَباً فَقَالَ لِيَ ارْجِعْ حَتَّى أُحَدِّثَكَ بِشَيْ‏ءٍ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ (عَلَيْهِما السَّلاَم) فَرَجَعْتُ فَقَالَ قُلْتُ لأَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) إِنِّي إِذَا وَجَدْتُ زَكَاتِي أَخْرَجْتُهَا فَأَدْفَعُ مِنْهَا إِلَى مَنْ أَثِقُ بِهِ يَقْسِمُهَا قَالَ نَعَمْ لا بَأْسَ بِذَلِكَ أَمَا إِنَّهُ أَحَدُ الْمُعْطِينَ قَالَ صَالِحٌ فَأَخَذْتُ الدَّرَاهِمَ حَيْثُ سَمِعْتُ الْحَدِيثَ فَقَسَمْتُهَا.
1. A number of our people have narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from al-Hassan ibn Mahbub from Salih ibn Razin who has said the following: “Shihab ibn ‘ Abd Rabbihi gave to me a certain amount of dirhams of zakat to distribute among the needy. One day I visited him, and he asked, ‘Did you distribute them?’ I said, ‘No, I have not done so.’ He said something that I did not like. I then threw to him what still was not distributed and got up to leave. He said, ‘Come back and allow me to tell you about something that I heard from Ja’far ibn Muhammad .’ I returned and he said to me, ‘I asked abu ‘Abd Allah , “Can I give the amount of zakat I owe to someone I trust so he can distribute among the needy?” He (the Imam) replied, ‘It is just fine. He receives a reward like the donors of charity. Salih has said, “I then took the dirhams back after hearing the Hadith, and distributed them (among the needy).”’”
