The Sufficient (Vol 5) · Hadith 157 (#Ḥadīth #3)

3- عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ بُنْدَارَ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الثَّقَفِيِّ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ الْمُعَلَّى عَنِ الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ رَفَعَهُ إِلَى أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ قَالَ قِيلَ لَهُ مَا بَالُ أَصْحَابِ عِيسَى كَانُوا يَمْشُونَ عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَلَيْسَ ذَلِكَ فِي أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ أَصْحَابَ عِيسَى كُفُوا الْمَعَاشَ وَإِنَّ هَؤُلاءِ ابْتُلُوا بِالْمَعَاشِ.

3. Ali ibn Muhammad Bandar has narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from Ibrahim ibn Muhammad al-Thaqafiy from Ali ibn Mu‘alla’ from al-Qasim ibn Muhammad in a marfu’ manner who has said the following: “Once it was asked of abu ‘Abd Allah , ‘How is it that disciples of Jesus could walk on water and the companions of Muhammad ﷺ, do not have such ability? Abu ‘Abd Allah , replied, ‘The disciples of Jesus were self-sufficient financially and these people have trouble with their financial matters.’”
