Imam Ja‘far al-Ṣadiq (as): Abu Amr al-Shaybani narrated, 'I saw Aba Abdillah (AS) with a spade in his hand and wearing thick clothes, working in his yard with sweat dripping from his back. I stepped forward and said, 'May I be your ransom, allow me to work in your place.' He replied, 'Verily I love for a man [myself] to bear the sun's heat in the quest for a living.' al-Kāfī
