تحقيرُ الفَقيرِ Humiliating the Poor

35ـ رسولُ اللهِ‏ِ (صَلَّيَ اللهُ عَلَيهِ وَ آلِهِ): مَنِ استَذَلَّ مؤمِناً أو مؤمِنَةً أو حَقَّرَهُ لِفَقرِهِ أو قِلَّةِ ذاتِ يَدِهِ، شَهَرَهُ اللّه‏ُ تعالى يومَ القِيامَةِ ثُمّ يَفضَحُهُ.

35– The Prophet (SAWA) said, ‘Whoever degrades a believer, male or female, or humiliates him because of his poverty or lack of ability, Allah, most High, will promulgate him on the Day of Resurrection and then disgrace him.’[Bihar al-Anwar, v. 72, p. 44, no. 52]
 

36ـ الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): لاتُحَقِّروا ضُعفاءَ إخوانِكُم ؛ فإنّهُ مَنِ احتَقَرَ مُؤمِناً لم يَجمَعِ اللّه‏ُ عَزَّوجلَّ بينهما في الجنّةِ إلّا أن يتوبَ .

36– Imam Ali (AS) said, ‘Do not humiliate the weak ones from among your brethren; for whoever humiliates a believer, Allah Almighty will not bring them together in Heaven until he repents.’[al-Khisal, p. 614, no. 10]
 

37ـ الإمامُ الرِّضا (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ): مَن لَقِيَ فقيراً مُسلِماً فَسَلَّمَ علَيهِ خِلافَ سَلامِهِ علَى الغَنيِّ، لَقِيَ اللّه‏َ عَزَّوجلَّ يَومَ القِيامَةِ وهُو علَيهِ غَضبانُ.

37– Imam al-Rida (AS) said, ‘Whoever meets a poor Muslim and greets him differently to the way he would greet a rich person, will meet Allah, Mighty and Exalted, on the Day of Judgment, and He will be angry with him.’[Amali al-Saduq, p. 359, no. 5]
