Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 17783

وَعَنْ أَبِي الْقَيْنِ : أَنَّهُ مَرَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - وَمَعَهُ تَمْرٌ عَلَى رَحْلِهِ ، فَقَامَ إِلَيْهِ عَمُّهُ ، فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ مِنْهُ قَبْضَةً لِيَضَعَهَا بَيْنَ يَدَيِ النَّبِيِّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - فَتَبَطَّحَ عَلَى التَّمْرِ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - : " اللَّهُمَّ زِدْهُ شُحًّا " . قَالَ : فَكَانَ مِنْ أَشَحِّ النَّاسِ . رَوَاهُ الْبَزَّارُ بِإِسْنَادَيْنِ : أَحَدُهُمَا مُتَّصِلٌ وَهَذَا مَتْنُهُ . وَالْآخَرُ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جَمْهَانَ أَنَّ مَوْلَاهُ أَبَا الْقَيْنِ ، مَرَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - . وَرَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ : فَأَهْوَى إِلَيْهِ النَّبِيُّ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لِيَأْخُذَ مِنْهُ قَبْضَةً يَنْثُرُهَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْ أَصْحَابِهِ . وَرِجَالُ الْمُرْسَلِ وَالْمُسْنَدِ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ غَيْرَ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جَمْهَانَ وَقَدْ وَثَّقَهُ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ ، وَفِيهِ خِلَافٌ .
قُلْتُ : وَقَدْ تَقَدَّمَتْ أَحَادِيثُ فِي السَّخَاءِ وَالْبُخْلِ فِي كِتَابِ صَدَقَةِ التَّطَوُّعِ .
It is reported about Sayyiduna Abu al-Qayn (may Allah be pleased with him) that once he passed by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with some dates. His paternal uncle got up and went to him, intending to take a handful of dates from him and place them before the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), but that man gathered up the dates (and covered them). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Allah! Increase him in miserliness!" The narrator said: So he became the most miserly of people.
Bazzar recorded it with two chains, one of which is connected, and this is its text. The other report is narrated from Sa'id bin Jumhan: "His master, Sayyiduna Abu al-Qayn (may Allah be pleased with him), passed by the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." Tabarani recorded it, but he narrated these words: "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reached out his hand towards him in order to take a handful of dates from him and place them before his Companions." The narrators of the mursal report and of the musnad report are the narrators of the Sahih, except Sa'id bin Jumhan, whom more than one scholar has declared thiqah (trustworthy), although there is disagreement about him. (Allamah Haythami says:) I say: Hadiths about generosity and miserliness have already passed in the Book of Voluntary Charity.
