Saffwan al-Jammal has narrated, saying: “I was with Abu ‘Abd Allah (al-Sadiq) when a Mecca man called Maymun visited him and complained to him of (his inability) to rent (a house). He turned to me and said: ‘Rise and help your brother.’ I rose with him and Allah made easy his rent; I returned to my session and Abu ‘Abd Allah (al-Sadiq) asked me: ‘What have you done in respect with your brother’s need?’ ‘Allah has granted it to him, may my father and mother be your ransom,’ I replied. ‘Your help to your Muslim brother is more loveable to me than your circumambulating the Kaaba for one week,’ he said.'”
‘Your help to your Muslim brother is more loveable to me than your circumambulating the Kaaba for one week
