3ـ عَنْهُ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ جَارُودِ أَبِي الْمُنْذِرِ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ سَيِّدُ الأعْمَالِ ثَلاثَةٌ إِنْصَافُ النَّاسِ مِنْ نَفْسِكَ حَتَّى لا تَرْضَى بِشَيْءٍ إِلا رَضِيتَ لَهُمْ مِثْلَهُ وَمُوَاسَاتُكَ الأخَ فِي الْمَالِ وَذِكْرُ الله عَلَى كُلِّ حَالٍ لَيْسَ سُبْحَانَ الله وَالْحَمْدُ لله وَلا إِلَهَ إِلا الله وَالله أَكْبَرُ فَقَطْ وَلَكِنْ إِذَا وَرَدَ عَلَيْكَ شَيْءٌ أَمَرَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ بِهِ أَخَذْتَ بِهِ أَوْ إِذَا وَرَدَ عَلَيْكَ شَيْءٌ نَهَى الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَنْهُ تَرَكْتَهُ.

ENGLISH TRANSLATION
3. It is narrated from him (narrator of the Hadith above) from al-Hassan ibn Ali ibn Faddal from Ali ibn ‘Aqaba from Jarud from abu al-Mundhir who has said the following: “I heard Abu ‘Abdillah عليه السلام saying, ‘The masters of good deeds are three things: To yield to justice for people against one’s own soul. So what you do not like to happen to you, do not agree to happen to people also, to cooperate with your fellow believer in matters of properties and to speak of Allah in all conditions: not just saying, ‘Glory belongs to Allah, all praise belongs to Allah and no one deserves to be worshipped except Allah, but that if in case Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, has commanded you to do a certain thing, you must obey the command, and if it is a case you know that Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Holy, has prohibited you to do, you must stay away form it.’”
