عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ رَبَاحٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْعَاصِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَقُولُ لَقَدْ أَصْبَحْتُمْ وَأَمْسَيْتُمْ تَرْغَبُونَ فِيمَا كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَزْهَدُ فِيهِ أَصْبَحْتُمْ تَرْغَبُونَ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَزْهَدُ فِيهَا وَاللَّهِ مَا أَتَتْ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَيْلَةٌ مِنْ دَهْرِهِ إِلَّا كَانَ الَّذِي عَلَيْهِ أَكْثَرَ مِمَّا لَهُ قَالَ فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ رَأَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَسْتَسْلِفُ وَقَالَ غَيْرُ يَحْيَى وَاللَّهِ مَا مَرَّ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ثَلَاثَةٌ مِنَ الدَّهْرِ إِلَّا وَالَّذِي عَلَيْهِ أَكْثَرُ مِنَ الَّذِي لَهُ
Sayyiduna Amr bin Aas (may Allah be pleased with him) said: You have begun to desire things morning and evening, from which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to abstain; you have become inclined towards the world, whereas the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to keep away from it. By Allah! Every coming night, the amount the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had to give as debt was greater than what he had to take. Some companions said: Indeed, we also saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) taking loans. Narrators other than Yahya said: By Allah! Three days would not pass except that the amount the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had to give as debt was greater than what he had to take.
