10ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ الْقَاسَانِيِّ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِنَا أَنَّهُ حَمَلَ إِلَى أَبِي الْحَسَنِ الرِّضَا (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) مَالاً لَهُ خَطَرٌ فَلَمْ أَرَهُ سُرَّ بِهِ قَالَ فَاغْتَمَمْتُ لِذَلِكَ وَقُلْتُ فِي نَفْسِي قَدْ حَمَلْتُ هَذَا الْمَالَ وَلَمْ يُسَرَّ بِهِ فَقَالَ يَا غُلامُ الطَّسْتَ وَالْمَاءَ قَالَ فَقَعَدَ عَلَى كُرْسِيٍّ وَقَالَ بِيَدِهِ وَقَالَ لِلْغُلامِ صُبَّ عَلَيَّ الْمَاءَ قَالَ فَجَعَلَ يَسِيلُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَصَابِعِهِ فِي الطَّسْتِ ذَهَبٌ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَيَّ فَقَالَ لِي مَنْ كَانَ هَكَذَا لا يُبَالِي بِالَّذِي حَمَلْتَهُ إِلَيْهِ.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
10. Ali ibn Muhammad has narrated from Sahl ibn Ziyad from Ali ibnmd al-Qasani who has said the following. “A Certain person of our people has said that he wanted to deliver an amount of propertyto al-Rida عليه السلام . It was a large amount. When he saw it he did not become happy. I became depressed and said to myself, “I delivered this property to him but he did not become happy.” The Imam عليه السلام called, “O boy, bring water and the receptacle.” The narrator has said that the Imam thensat on the chair and made a hand gesture to the boy to pure water on his hand.” The narrator has said that from his hand gold began to fall in the receptacle. He then turned to me and said, “One who would be as this he does not become happy for what you would deliver to him.”
