7ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) يَقُولُ إِنِّي لآَخُذُ مِنْ أَحَدِكُمُ الدِّرْهَمَ وَإِنِّي لَمِنْ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ مَالاً مَا أُرِيدُ بِذَلِكَ إِلا أَنْ تُطَهَّرُوا.

Published English translation

7. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad from ibn Faddal from ibn Bukayr who has said the following “I heard abu ‘Abdallah (a.s.) say, ‘I procure payment of one Dirham from a person of you when I am the wealthiest of the people of the city of al-Madina I accept such payments just to purify you.”

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.
