Original Arabic text

[6/14] الخصال: عن ابن الوليد، عن الصفار، عن ابن عيسى، عن ابن محبوب، عن عبد الله بن سنان قال: سمعت أبا عبد الله عليه السلام يقول: إني لارحم ثلاثة وحق لهم أن يرحموا: عزير أصابته مذلة بعد العز، وغني أصابته حاجة بعد الغنى، وعالم يستخف به أهله والجهلة

Published English translation

6. [6/14] al-Khisal: From Ibn al-Walid from al-Saffar from Ibn Isa from Ibn Mahbub from Abdallah b. Sinan who said: I heard Aba Abdillah عليه السلام saying: I do have mercy on three and they do indeed deserve mercy: a man of standing who has been stricken with lowliness after his former high position, a man of riches who has been stricken with need after his former self-sufficiency, and a scholar who is belittled by his family and the ignorant.

verification Note
Publisher content rights, translator attribution and structural checks, with independent publisher-page spot checks—not scholarly authentication or printed-edition collation. Historical text and scholarly reference strings may contain source errors; they are not silently corrected. No full commentary prose or inferred narrator identity is added. Muʿjam coverage, where present, is only the supplied excerpt, not the complete work.
