(The author of the book narrated) my father - may God be pleased with him - narrated that Ahmad ibn Idris quoted on the authority of Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya ibn Imran al-Ash’ari, on the authority of Abu Abdullah al-Razi, on the authority of Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Nasr, on the authority of Al-Husayn ibn Khalid that he asked Abil Hassan (a.s.), “How much of one’s wealth should be used, if one has willed that some of his wealth be spent in a certain way?” The Imam (a.s.) said, “One-seventh of one-third [60] .”
