10 - حدثنا أبي، ومحمد بن موسى بن المتوكل رحمهما الله قالا: حدثنا سعد بن عبد الله وعبد الله بن جعفر الحميري جميعا، عن أحمد بن محمد بن عيسى، عن الحسن ابن محبوب، عن العلاء بن رزين، عن محمد بن مسلم، قال: سألت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام عن قول الله عز وجل: (ولله على الناس حج البيت من استطاع إليه سبيلا) قال: يكون له ما يحج به، قلت: فمن عرض عليه الحج فاستحيا؟ قال: هو ممن يستطيع.

10. My father and Muhammad ibn Musa ibn al-Mutawakkil both said: Sa`d ibn `Abd Allah and `Abd Allah ibn Ja`far al-Himyari both said, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn `Isa, on the authority of al-Hasan ibn Mahbub, on the authority of al-`Ala’ ibn Razin, on the authority of Muhammad ibn Muslim that I asked Abu `Abd Allah al-Sadiq about the Word of Allah, the Mighty and High: And pilgrimage to the House is incumbent upon men for the sake of Allah, (upon) everyone who is able to undertake the journey to it. He said: “He should have the means to perform the pilgrimage [hajj].” I asked, “What happens if someone offers to pay for your pilgrimage, and you fill embarrassed about accepting his offer?” He replied, “Such a person would be counted among those who have the ability (to perform the pilgrimage).”
