بَابُ مَا يَفْعَلُ طَالِبُ الْحَاجَةِ وَمِمَّنْ يَطْلُبُهَا .
What one seeking a need should do and from whom he should seek it
Majma al-Zawaid 13729 — What one seeking a need
عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ : لَا تَطْلُبْنَ حَاجَةً إِلَى أَعْمَى ، وَلَا تَطْلُبْهَا لَيْلًا ، وَإِذَا طَلَبْتَ الْحَاجَةَ فَاسْتَقْبِلِ الرَّجُلَ بِوَجْهِكَ فَإِنَّ الْحَيَاءَ فِي الْعَيْنَيْنِ ، وَبَاكِرْ حَاجَتَكَ فَإِنَّ النَّبِيَّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - قَالَ : " اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لِأُمَّتِي فِي بُكُورِهَا " . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ عَمْرُو بْنُ مَسَاوِرٍ وَهُوَ ضَعِيفٌ .
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: Do not ask a need of a blind person (that is, do not present your need before him), and do not present a need at night. When you present a need, face the person in front of you, for modesty lies in the eyes. And present your need in the early part of the day, for the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Allah, bless my Ummah in its early mornings!"
