عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ ”عَرَضَ عَلَيَّ رَبِّي عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لِيَجْعَلَ لِي بَطْحَاءَ مَكَّةَ ذَهَبًا فَقُلْتُ لَا يَا رَبِّ أَشْبَعُ يَوْمًا وَأَجُوعُ يَوْمًا أَوْ نَحْوَ ذَلِكَ فَإِذَا جُعْتُ تَضَرَّعْتُ إِلَيْكَ وَذَكَرْتُكَ وَإِذَا شَبِعْتُ حَمِدْتُكَ وَشَكَرْتُكَ“
Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: My Lord presented to me that He would turn the valley of Batha in Makkah into gold for me, but I said: No, O my Lord! I will be satiated one day and hungry another day. When I am hungry, I will express helplessness and need before You and remember You, and when I am satiated, Sayyiduna Abu Umamah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: My Lord presented to me that He would turn the valley of Batha in Makkah into gold for me, but I said: No, O my Lord!

Hadith 11216
(وَمِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ الْعَاصِ يَخْطُبُ النَّاسَ بِمِصْرَ يَقُولُ مَا أَبْعَدَ هَدْيَكُمْ مِنْ هَدْيِ نَبِيِّكُمْ أَمَّا هُوَ فَكَانَ أَزْهَدَ النَّاسِ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَأَمَّا أَنْتُمْ فَأَرْغَبُ النَّاسِ فِيهَا
(Second chain) Sayyiduna Amr ibn al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) while addressing in Egypt said: What has distanced your way of life from the conduct of your Prophet! He (peace and blessings be upon him) was the most disinterested in the world, but you are the most desirous of it.
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 of debt that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had to give 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) that he used to take loans. Other narrators besides Yahya said: By Allah! Three days would not pass except that the amount of debt the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had to give was greater than what he had to take.

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

Hadith 11217
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ الْتَفَتَ إِلَى أُحُدٍ فَقَالَ ”وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّ أُحُدًا يُحَوَّلُ لِآلِ مُحَمَّدٍ ذَهَبًا أُنْفِقُهُ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ أَمُوتُ يَوْمَ أَمُوتُ أَدَعُ مِنْهُ دِينَارَيْنِ إِلَّا دِينَارَيْنِ أُعِدُّهُمَا لِدَيْنٍ“ إِنْ كَانَ فَمَاتَ وَمَا تَرَكَ دِينَارًا وَلَا دِرْهَمًا وَلَا عَبْدًا وَلَا وَلِيدَةً وَتَرَكَ دِرْعَهُ مَرْهُونَةً عِنْدَ يَهُودِيٍّ عَلَى ثَلَاثِينَ صَاعًا مِنْ شَعِيرٍ (زَادَ فِي رِوَايَةٍ أَخَذَهَا رِزْقًا لِعِيَالِهِ)
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) looked towards the mountain of Uhud and said: By Him in Whose hand is the life of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family), I do not like that the mountain of Uhud be turned into gold for the family of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) and that I keep spending it in the way of Allah, and when I die, I leave behind even two dinars, except if I leave two dinars for the repayment of a debt, that is a different matter. So, when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) passed away, he did not leave behind any dinar, dirham, slave, or slave-girl, etc. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) only left behind a coat of mail, and he departed from this world while it was mortgaged with a Jew in exchange for thirty sa’ of barley. In another narration, it is mentioned that he (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) had acquired this for the food of his family.
Hadith 11218
عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الزَّيَادِيِّ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّهُ جَاءَ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ وَبِيَدِهِ عَصَاهُ فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ يَا كَعْبُ إِنَّ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ تُوُفِّيَ وَتَرَكَ مَالًا فَمَا تَرَى فِيهِ فَقَالَ إِنْ كَانَ يَصِلُ فِيهِ حَقَّ اللَّهِ فَلَا بَأْسَ عَلَيْهِ فَرَفَعَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ عَصَاهُ فَضَرَبَ كَعْبًا وَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ”مَا أُحِبُّ لَوْ أَنَّ لِي هَذَا الْجَبَلَ ذَهَبًا أُنْفِقُهُ وَيُتَقَبَّلُ مِنِّي أَذَرُ خَلْفِي مِنْهُ سِتَّ أَوَاقٍ“ أَنْشُدُكَ اللَّهَ يَا عُثْمَانُ أَسَمِعْتَهُ ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ نَعَمْ
Malik bin Abdullah Ziyadi narrates that Sayyiduna Abu Dharr Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) came and sought permission to enter the house of Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him). He granted him permission to enter. In his hand was a staff. Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Ka'b! Abdur Rahman has passed away leaving behind considerable wealth. What is your opinion regarding this? He said: If he used to fulfill Allah's rights from that wealth, then there is no harm in it. Upon hearing this, Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) raised his staff and struck Sayyiduna Ka'b (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: I heard that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I do not even like that this mountain of Uhud be of gold and I spend it in the way of Allah and my charity is accepted by Allah, and I leave for myself from it only six uqiyah of gold. O Uthman! I ask you by Allah, did you hear this hadith from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? (Sayyiduna Abu Dharr repeated this three times.) Finally, Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Yes, I also heard this hadith.
Hadith 11219
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ أَنَا وَعُرْوَةُ بْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ يَوْمًا عَلَى عَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا فَقَالَتْ لَوْ رَأَيْتُمَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فِي مَرَضٍ مَرِضَهُ قَالَتْ وَكَانَ لَهُ عِنْدِي سِتَّةُ دَنَانِيرَ قَالَ مُوسَى أَوْ سَبْعَةٌ قَالَتْ فَأَمَرَنِي نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ أُفَرِّقَهَا قَالَتْ فَشَغَلَنِي وَجَعُ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى عَافَاهُ اللَّهُ قَالَتْ ثُمَّ سَأَلَنِي عَنْهَا فَقَالَ ”مَا فَعَلَتِ السِّتَّةُ؟“ قَالَ أَوْ السَّبْعَةُ قُلْتُ لَا وَاللَّهِ لَقَدْ كَانَ شَغَلَنِي وَجَعُكَ قَالَتْ فَدَعَا بِهَا ثُمَّ صَفَّهَا فِي كَفِّهِ فَقَالَ ”مَا ظَنُّ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ لَوْ لَقِيَ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ وَهَذِهِ عِنْدَهُ“
It is narrated from Abu Umamah bin Sahl, he says: He said that I and Urwah bin Zubair went one day to Sayyidah Aisha Siddiqa (may Allah be pleased with her). She said: I wish you had seen the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) during his illness of death. I had six (or seven) dinars with me. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered me to distribute them, but his illness kept me occupied until Allah Almighty granted him recovery. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me about them and said: What happened to those six dinars? I replied: By Allah, I was occupied with your illness and could not distribute them. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had those dinars brought, placed them on his palm, and said: What will be the state of the Prophet of Allah if he meets Allah Almighty while this wealth is in his possession?

عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا قَالَتْ أَكْثَرُ مَا عَلِمْتُ أُتِيَ بِهِ نَبِيُّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنَ الْمَالِ بِخَرِيطَةٍ فِيهَا ثَمَانُمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ
It is narrated from Sayyida Umm Salama (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: To the best of my knowledge, no more than eight hundred dirhams were ever brought to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in a pouch.
