1⃣مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِدْرِیسَ فِی آخِرِ السَّرَائِرِ نَقْلًا مِنْ رِوَایَةِ أَبِی الْقَاسِمِ بْنِ قُولَوَیْهِ عَنْ حُمْرَانَ بْنِ أَعْیَنَ عَنْ أَبِی جَعْفَرٍ فِی حَدِیثٍ قَالَ عَلَیْکَ بِالدُّعَاءِ لِإِخْوَانِکَ بِظَهْرِ الْغَیْبِ فَإِنَّهُ یَهِیلُ الرِّزْقَ یَقُولُهَا ثَلَاثاً
📚 Al-Sarair, Vol. 3, Page 637
Translation: Imam Baqir (AS) said in a hadith: You must pray for your brothers in their absence, for this action brings sustenance abundantly and without measure. The Imam repeated this statement three times.
2⃣أَعْلَامُ الدِّینِ، عَنْ أَمِیرِ الْمُؤْمِنِینَ صلوات الله علیه قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِیُّ صلی الله علیه و آله إِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ یُثْرِیَ اللَّهُ مَالَکَ فَزَکِّهِ وَ إِذَا أَرَدْتَ أَنْ یُصِحَّ اللَّهُ بَدَنَکَ فَأَکْثِرْ مِنَ الصَّدَقَةِ
📚 I'lam al-Din, Page 268
Translation: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said in a hadith: If you want your wealth to increase, pay its zakat; and if you want Allah to keep your body healthy, give a lot of charity.
3⃣عَنِ الْحُسَیْنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَحْمَدَ النَّهْدِیِّ عَنْ کَثِیرِ بْنِ یُونُسَ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَیَابَةَ عَنْ أَبِی عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فِی حَدِیثٍ قَالَ أَ لَا أُوصِیکَ قُلْتُ بَلَی قَالَ عَلَیْکَ بِصِدْقِ الْحَدِیثِ وَ أَدَاءِ الْأَمَانَةِ تُشْرِکُ النَّاسَ فِی أَمْوَالِهِمْ هَکَذَا وَ جَمَعَ بَیْنَ أَصَابِعِهِ قَالَ فَحَفِظْتُ ذَلِکَ عَنْهُ فَزَکَّیْتُ ثَلَاثَمِائَةِ أَلْفِ دِرْهَمٍ
📚 Al-Kafi, Vol. 5, Page 134
Translation: Imam Sadiq (AS) said to Abdul Rahman bin Sayabah: Shall I advise you? I said: Yes, may I be your ransom. He said: Always speak the truth and fulfill trusts, for this will make you a partner in people's wealth. Then the Imam brought his fingers together (to illustrate the concept). The narrator said: I followed this advice, and my wealth increased to the point that I paid three hundred thousand dirhams in zakat.

4⃣عَنْ عَلِیٍّ صلوات الله علیه فِی حَدِیثِ الْأَرْبَعِمِائَةِ قَالَ الْجُلُوسُ فِی الْمَسْجِدِ بَعْدَ طُلُوعِ الْفَجْرِ إِلَی طُلُوعِ الشَّمْسِ أَسْرَعُ فِی طَلَبِ الرِّزْقِ مِنَ الضَّرْبِ فِی الْأَرْضِ
Translation: Amir al-Mu’minin (AS) said in a hadith among his four hundred sayings: Sitting in the mosque (prayer place) after the dawn prayer until sunrise is faster in bringing sustenance than traveling the earth in search of it.

Translation: Abi Kahmas narrated: A man asked Abdullah bin Hassan to teach him something about sustenance. He said: When you finish the morning prayer, stay in your prayer place until sunrise, for this is more effective in seeking sustenance than traveling the earth. The narrator said: I conveyed this to Imam Sadiq (AS), and he said: Shall I teach you something even more beneficial for sustenance? I said: Yes. He said: Trim your mustache and nails every Friday.
اللَّهُمَّ فَصَلِّ عَلَی مُحَمَّدٍ وَ آلِ مُحَمَّدٍ وَ عَجِّلْ لِوَلِیِّکَ الْفَرَجَ وَ الْعَافِیَةَ وَ النَّصْرَ
