Hadith 866

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((بَيْنَمَا أَيُّوبُ يَغْتَسِلُ عُرْيَانًا خَرَّ عَلَيْهِ جَرَادٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، فَجَعَلَ أَيُّوبُ يَحْثِي فِي ثَوْبِهِ، فَنَادَاهُ رَبُّهُ يَا أَيُّوبُ! أَلَمْ أَكُنْ أَغْنَيْتُكَ عَمَّا تَرَى؟ قَالَ: بَلَى يَا رَبِّ، وَلَكِنْ لَا غِنًى بِي عَنْ بَرَكَتِكَ))
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Prophet Ayyub (peace be upon him) was bathing in a naked state when golden locusts began to fall upon him. Prophet Ayyub (peace be upon him) started gathering them in his garment. His Lord called out to him: O Ayyub! Did I not make you independent of that which you see? He replied: Yes indeed, O my Lord! But there is no indifference from Your blessing.
