١١٢. مَنْ أَحَبَّنَا أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ فَلْيَسْتَعِدَّ لِلْفَقْرِ جِلْبَاباً.
112. Whoever loves us, members of the Household (of the Prophet), should be prepared to face destitution.
قال السيد الرضى: وقد يؤول ذلك على معنى آخر ليس هذا موضع ذكره.
As-Sayyid ar-Raḍī says: This has been interpreted in a different way as well, but on this occasion is not fit to mention here. [1]
Footnote :
[1] Perhaps the other meaning of this saying is that: “Whoever loves us should not hanker after worldly matters even though in consequence he may have to face destitution and poverty; but he should rather remain content and avoid seeking worldly benefits.”
