عَنِ الْمُسْتَوْرِدِ بْنِ شَدَّادٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((مَنْ وَلِي لَنَا عَمَلًا وَلَيْسَ لَهُ مَنْزِلٌ فَلْيَتَّخِذْ مَنْزِلًا أَوْ لَيْسَ لَهُ زَوْجَةٌ فَلْيَتَزَوَّجْ، أَوْ لَيْسَ لَهُ خَادِمٌ فَلْيَتَّخِذْ خَادِمًا، أَوْ لَيْسَتْ لَهُ دَابَّةٌ فَلْيَتَّخِذْ دَابَّةً، وَمَنْ أَصَابَ شَيْئًا سِوَى ذَلِكَ فَهُوَ غَالٌّ))
Sayyiduna Mustawrid bin Shaddad (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever is appointed over any of our affairs, if he does not have a house, let him acquire a house (from the public treasury); if he does not have a wife, let him marry; if he does not have a servant, let him acquire a servant; and if he does not have a mount, let him acquire a mount. Whoever takes anything beyond this is a betrayer.
