"Then you are not brothers"

Abdullaah bin Al-Wahid said:

قال لنا أبو جعفر محمد علي: يدخل أحدكم يده في كم صاحبه فيأخذ ما يريد؟ قلنا: لا، قال: فلستم بإخوان كما تزعمون

ENGLISH:

"Abu Ja'far Muhammad Ibn Ali asked us: "Does anyone of you place his hands in his brother's bag and takes whatever he wishes?" We said: "No". He said: "Then you are not brothers, as you claim to be".

NEDERLANDS:

"Abu Ja'far Muhammad bin 'Ali vroeg ons: "Stopt iemand van jullie zijn hand in zijn broeders tas en neemt hij wat hij wil?" Wij zeiden: "Nee". Hij zei: "Dan zijn jullie geen broeders zoals jullie beweren".

["Hilyatul-Auliyaa", 3/187].
