2ـ عِدَّةٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ الْوَشَّاءِ عَنْ عِيسَى بْنِ سُلَيْمَانَ النَّحَّاسِ عَنِ الْمُفَضَّلِ بْنِ عُمَرَ عَنِ الْخَيْبَرِيِّ وَيُونُسَ بْنِ ظَبْيَانَ قَالا سَمِعْنَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الله يَقُولُ مَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ أَحَبَّ إِلَى الله مِنْ إِخْرَاجِ الدَّرَاهِمِ إِلَى الامَامِ وَإِنَّ الله لَيَجْعَلُ لَهُ الدِّرْهَمَ فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِثْلَ جَبَلِ أُحُدٍ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ الله تَعَالَى يَقُولُ فِي كِتَابِهِ مَنْ ذَا الَّذِي يُقْرِضُ الله قَرْضاً حَسَناً فَيُضاعِفَهُ لَهُ أَضْعافاً كَثِيرَةً قَالَ هُوَ وَالله فِي صِلَةِ الامَامِ خَاصَّةً.

2. A number of our people has narrated Ahmad ibn Muhammad from al-Washsha’ from ‘Isa ibn Sulayman al-Nahhas from al-Mufaddl ibn ‘Umar from al-Khaybari and Yunus ibn Zabyan who both have said we heard abu ‘Abdallah say the following. “There is nothing more beloved to Allah than the Dirhams taken out (of one’s property) to pay to the Imam . On the Day of Judgment Allah will his Dirham as big as the mountain of ’Uhud.” He then said, “Allah, the Most High has said in His book, “One who generously lends to God will be paid back in many multiples of the loan. . .” (2:245) The Imam said, “This is a special reference to the payment made to the Imam.”
