"عَنْ عَلىٍّ قَالَ: مَا أَدْرِى أَىَّ النِّعْمَتَيْنِ أَعْظَمَ عَلَىَّ مِنَّةً مِنْ ربِّى، رَجُلٌ بَذَلَ مُصَاصَ وَجْهِهِ إلَىَّ فَرآنى مَوْضِعا لِحَاجَتِهِ أو أَجْرَى الله قَضَاءَهَا أَوْ يَسَّرَهُ عَلَى يَدَىَّ، وَلأنْ أَقْضِىَ لامْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ حَاجَة أَحَبُ إِلَىَّ مِنْ مِلْءِ الأرْضِ ذَهَبًا وَفِضَّةً".

"On the authority of 'Ali, who said: 'I do not know which of the two blessings is greater for me in favor from my Lord: a man who extends the essence of his face to me and I become the place of his need, or Allah makes its fulfillment flow, or makes it easy for him through my hands. And to fulfill a need for a Muslim man is more beloved to me than filling the earth with gold and silver.'"
