حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ أَبِي الرَّبِيعِ , حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ , حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ , عَنْ ثَابِتٍ , عَنْ أَنَسٍ , قَالَ : اشْتَكَى سَلْمَانُ , فَعَادَهُ سَعْدٌ فَرَآهُ يَبْكِي , فَقَالَ لَهُ سَعْدٌ : مَا يُبْكِيكَ يَا أَخِي , أَلَيْسَ قَدْ صَحِبْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ؟ أَلَيْسَ أَلَيْسَ , قَالَ سَلْمَانُ : مَا أَبْكِي وَاحِدَةً مِنَ اثْنَتَيْنِ , مَا أَبْكِي ضِنًّا لِلدُّنْيَا , وَلَا كَرَاهِيَةً لِلْآخِرَةِ , وَلَكِنْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ عَهْدًا فَمَا أُرَانِي إِلَّا قَدْ تَعَدَّيْتُ , قَالَ : وَمَا عَهِدَ إِلَيْكَ ؟ قَالَ : " عَهِدَ إِلَيَّ أَنَّهُ يَكْفِي أَحَدَكُمْ مِثْلُ زَادِ الرَّاكِبِ , وَلَا أُرَانِي إِلَّا قَدْ تَعَدَّيْتُ , وَأَمَّا أَنْتَ يَا سَعْدُ , فَاتَّقِ اللَّهَ عِنْدَ حُكْمِكَ إِذَا حَكَمْتَ , وَعِنْدَ قَسْمِكَ إِذَا قَسَمْتَ , وَعِنْدَ هَمِّكَ إِذَا هَمَمْتَ " , قَالَ ثَابِتٌ : فَبَلَغَنِي أَنَّهُ مَا تَرَكَ إِلَّا بِضْعَةً وَعِشْرِينَ دِرْهَمًا , مِنْ نَفَقَةٍ كَانَتْ عِنْدَهُ .
´It was narrated from Thabit that Anas said:` “Salman felt sick and Sa’d came to visit him, and when he saw him he wept. Sa’d said to him: ‘Why are you weeping, my brother? Are you not a Companion of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ)? Are you not? Are you not?’ Salman said: ‘I am only weeping for one reason: I am not weeping because of longing for this world or for dislike of the Hereafter. But the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) gave me some advice and I think that I have transgressed.’ He said: ‘What was his advice to you?’ He said: ‘He advised me that something like the provision of a rider is sufficient for anyone of you, and I think that I have transgressed that. As for you, O Sa’d, fear Allah when you pass a verdict, and when you distribute (spoils of war), and when you decide to do anything.’”
