عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ غَلَا السِّعْرُ عَلَى عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لَوْ سَعَّرْتَ فَقَالَ إِنَّ اللَّهَ هُوَ الْخَالِقُ الْقَابِضُ الْبَاسِطُ الرَّزَّاقُ الْمُسَعِّرُ وَإِنِّي لَأَرْجُو أَنْ أَلْقَى اللَّهَ وَلَا يَطْلُبُنِي أَحَدٌ بِمَظْلِمَةٍ ظَلَمْتُهَا إِيَّاهُ فِي دَمٍ وَلَا مَالٍ
Narrated by Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him): Once during the time of the Prophet, the prices of things increased. The people said: O Messenger of Allah! If you would fix the prices for us. But the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Indeed, it is Allah Almighty who is the Creator, the One who decreases, the One who increases, the One who gives abundance, the Provider, and the One who raises the prices. I hope from Allah Almighty that when I meet Him, there will be no one who will demand from me any right regarding blood or wealth.
