حدثنا محمد بن علي ماجيلويه - رضي الله عنه -، عن أبيه، عن أحمد بن أبي عبد الله، عن بعض أصحابنا بلغ به سعد بن طريف، عن الأصبغ بن نباتة، عن الحارث الأعور، قال: فيما سأل علي صلوات الله عليه ابنه الحسن عليه السلام أن قال له: ما الشح؟ فقال: أن ترى ما في يدك شرفا وما أنفقت تلفا.
3.	We were told by Muhammed bin Ali Majilawayh, may Allah be pleased with him, from his father, from Ahmad bin Abi Abdillah, from some of our companions, to whom Sa’d bin Turaif informed, from Asbagh bin Nubata, from Harith, the half-blinded, that he said: Among what Ali, Allah’s blessings be upon him, asked his son, Hasan, peace be upon him, is that he said to him: What is avarice? He said: That you see what is in your hand as an honor, and that what you have spent is a loss.
