Individual Ethics » Virtues » Asceticism » Asceticism does not diminish sustenance
الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):
إنَّ زُهدَ الزاهِدِ في هذه الدنيا لا يَنقُصُهُ مِمّا قَسَمَ اللّهُ عزّ و جلّ لَهُ فيها و إن زَهِدَ ، و إنَّ حِرْصَ الحَريصِ على عاجِلِ زَهرَةِ (الحَياةِ) الدنيا لا يَزِيدُهُ فيها و إن حَرِصَ ، فالمَغبونُ مَن حُرِمَ حَظُّهُ مِنَ الآخِرَةِ.

Verily the ascetic's abstention does not diminish that which Allah has apportioned for him even if he abstains, just as the covetous person's greed in the immediate glittering bounties of the world does not increase his share even if he covets. The one who is truly in loss is he who is deprived of his share of the Hereafter.

Abū Jaʿfar, Muḥammad b. Yaʿqūb b. Isḥāq al-Kulaynī Al-Rāzī (Arabic: ابوجعفر، محمّد بن یعقوب بن اسحاق الرازی) (c. 255/868-9 - 329/941) was among the greatest Shi'a hadith scholars and the author of al-Kafi, the most authentic Shi'a hadith collection and one the Four Books. He was born after the martyrdom of Imam al-'Askari (a), at the time of Imam al-Mahdi (a) and met some hadith transmitters who directly had heard hadiths from Imam al-Hadi (a) and Imam al-'Askari (a). It is said that al-Kulayni was very accurate in transmitting hadiths. Ibn Qulawayh, Muhammad b. Ali Majilawayh al-Qummi, Ahmad b. Muhammad al-Zurari were among his students.
