Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 13421

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " كَانَ رَجُلٌ فِي بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ تَاجِرًا ، وَكَانَ يَنْقُصُ مَرَّةً وَيَزِيدُ أُخْرَى فَقَالَ : مَا فِي هَذِهِ التِّجَارَةِ خَيْرٌ لَأَلْتَمِسُ تِجَارَةً هِيَ خَيْرٌ مِنْ هَذِهِ . فَبَنَى صَوْمَعَةً وَتَرَهَّبَ فِيهَا " . قَالَ : فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ . أَيْ نَحْوَ حَدِيثِ الصَّحِيحِ فِي قِصَّةِ جُرَيْجٍ . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ .
Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Among the Children of Israel there was a man who was a merchant. Sometimes his wealth decreased and sometimes it increased. He said: 'There is no good in this trade; I should seek a trade that is better than this.' So he built a hermitage and began to live in it, adopting the life of a monk." The narrator said: After this the narrator mentioned the hadith as before, that is, similar to the hadith about the story of Jurayj that is mentioned in the "Sahih".
Ahmad recorded it.
