Hadith 11860
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ تَغْلِبَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَتَاهُ شَيْءٌ فَأَعْطَاهُ نَاسًا وَتَرَكَ نَاسًا وَقَالَ جَرِيرٌ أَعْطَى رِجَالًا وَتَرَكَ رِجَالًا قَالَ فَبَلَغَهُ عَنِ الَّذِينَ تَرَكَ أَنَّهُمْ عَتَبُوا وَقَالُوا قَالَ فَصَعِدَ الْمِنْبَرَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ ”إِنِّي أُعْطِي نَاسًا وَأَدَعُ نَاسًا وَأُعْطِي رِجَالًا وَأَدَعُ رِجَالًا“ قَالَ عَفَّانُ قَالَ ”ذِي وَذِي وَالَّذِي أَدَعُ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنَ الَّذِي أُعْطِي أُعْطِي أُنَاسًا لِمَا فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مِنَ الْجَزَعِ وَالْهَلَعِ وَأَكِلُ قَوْمًا إِلَى مَا جَعَلَ اللَّهُ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ مِنَ الْغِنَى وَالْخَيْرِ مِنْهُمْ عَمْرُو بْنُ تَغْلِبَ“ قَالَ وَكُنْتُ جَالِسًا تِلْقَاءَ وَجْهِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ لِي بِكَلِمَةِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ حُمْرَ النَّعَمِ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Amr bin Taghlib (may Allah be pleased with him) that war booty came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he distributed it among some people and left out others. Those whom he (peace and blessings be upon him) did not give any share expressed displeasure. When this matter reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he ascended the pulpit, praised and glorified Allah, and then said: I give to some people and leave out others, even though those whom I do not give are more beloved to me than those to whom I give. I give to those whose hearts have greed and desire, and those whose hearts Allah Almighty has filled with contentment and goodness, I entrust them to the blessings Allah has granted them. Amr bin Taghlib (may Allah be pleased with him) is among such people. Sayyiduna Amr bin Taghlib (may Allah be pleased with him), upon hearing this about himself, said: I was sitting before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and nothing is dearer to me than these words of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), not even red camels.
