١- عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ حَمَّادٍ عَنْ زِيَادٍ الْقَنْدِيِّ عَنِ الْحُسَيْنِ الصَّحَّافِ عَنْ سَدِيرٍ قَالَ قُلْتُ لأبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) أَيُّ شَيْ‏ءٍ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ فِي طَلَبِ الرِّزْقِ فَقَالَ إِذَا فَتَحْتَ بَابَكَ وَبَسَطْتَ بِسَاطَكَ فَقَدْ قَضَيْتَ مَا عَلَيْكَ.
1. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Khalid from ‘ Abd al-Rahman ibn Hammad from Ziyad al- Qandiy from Al-Husayn al-Sahhaf from Sadir who has said the following: “This is concerning my question before abu ‘Abd Allah , ‘What should a man do for work to make a living?’ He (the Imam) replied, ‘If you open your door and spread your merchandise, you then have done what should have been doing.’”
