القاسم عن عبد الصمد بن هلال عن رجل من أصحابنا قال: قلت لأبي عبد الله عليه السلام: ان آل فلان يبر بعضهم بعضا ويتواصلون قال: إذا (اذن) ينمون وتنموا أموالهم ولا يزالون في ذلك حتى يتقاطعوا فإذا فعلوا ذلك انكسر عنهم.
15.Al-Qāsim narrated from ʿAbd al-Ṣamad ibn Hilāl, from a man among our companions who said, “I said to Abū ʿAbdillāh , ‘Verily the family of so-and-so are dutiful [and kind] towards each other and maintain familial ties with each other.’ He said, ‘Then they will grow [in numbers] and their wealth will grow. And they shall continue in this way unless they sever ties with each other. If they do that, it shall break away from them.’”
