Hadith 627
627 صحيح حديث أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخدْرِيِّ رضي الله عنه، أَنَّ نَاسًا مِنَ الأَنْصَارِ، سَأَلُوا رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأَعْطَاهُمْ، ثُمَّ سَأَلُوهُ فَأَعْطَاهُمْ، حَتَّى نَفِدَ مَا عِنْدَهُ، فَقَالَ: مَا يَكُونُ عِنْدِي مِنْ خَيْرٍ فَلَنْ أَدَّخِرَهُ عَنْكُم، وَمَنْ يَسْتَعْفِفْ يُعِفَّهُ اللهُ، وَمَنْ يَسْتَغْنِ يُغْنِهِ اللهُ، وَمَنْ يَتَصَبَّرْ يُصَبِّرْهُ اللهُ، وَمَا أُعْطِيَ أَحَدٌ عَطَاءً خَيْرًا وَأَوْسَعَ مِنَ الصَّبْرِ
Sayyiduna Abu Sa‘id Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that some people from the Ansar asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) for something, so he gave them. Then they asked again and he gave them again, until whatever wealth he had was finished. Then he said: If I had any wealth, I would not keep it saved except for something I would save. But whoever refrains from asking, Allah will keep him from needing to ask, and whoever seeks to be independent, Allah will make him independent, and whoever strives to be patient, Allah will grant him patience. And no one has been given anything better or more vast than patience.
