3- مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ شَاذَانَ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْحَمِيدِ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ أَخِي أُدَيْمٍ بَيَّاعِ الْهَرَوِيِّ قَالَ كُنَّا جُلُوساً عِنْدَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ إِذْ أَقْبَلَ الْعَلاءُ بْنُ كَامِلٍ فَجَلَسَ قُدَّامَ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ فَقَالَ ادْعُ اللهَ أَنْ يَرْزُقَنِي فِي دَعَةٍ فَقَالَ لا أَدْعُو لَكَ اطْلُبْ كَمَا أَمَرَكَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ.

3. Muhammad ibn ‘Isma’il has narrated from al-Fadl ibn Shadhan from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from Ibrahim ibn ‘Abd al-Hamid from Ayyub, brother of ‘Udaym Bayya’ al-Harawiy who has said the following: “Once we were in the presence of abu ‘Abd Allah , when al-‘Ala’ ibn Kamil came in and sat in front of abu ‘Abd Allah , and asked, ‘Please pray for me so Allah will make me affluent.’ Abu ‘Abd Allah , said, ‘I will not pray for you. Has Allah, most Majestic, most Glorious, not commanded you to seek and find your sustenance?”’
