Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 18285

وَعَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنْ عَبْسٍ قَالَ : كُنْتُ أَسِيرُ مَعَ سَلْمَانَ عَلَى شَطِّ دِجْلَةَ ، فَقَالَ : يَا أَخَا بَنِي عَبْسٍ ، انْزِلْ فَاشْرَبْ ، فَشَرِبْتُ ، فَقَالَ : مَا نَقَصَ شَرَابُكَ مِنْ دِجْلَةَ ؟ قُلْتُ : مَا عَسَى أَنْ يَنْقُصَ ؟ قَالَ : فَإِنَّ الْعِلْمَ كَذَلِكَ يُؤْخَذُ مِنْهُ وَلَا يَنْقُصُ . ثُمَّ قَالَ : ارْكَبْ ، فَمَرَرْنَا بِأَكْدَاسٍ مِنْ حِنْطَةٍ وَشَعِيرٍ ، فَقَالَ : أَفَتَرَى هَذَا ؟ فُتِحَ لَنَا ، وَقُتِّرَ عَلَى أَصْحَابِ مُحَمَّدٍ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - لِخَيْرٍ لَنَا وَشَرٍّ لَهُمْ ؟ قُلْتُ : لَا أَدْرِي وَلَكِنِّي أَدْرِي شَرٌّ لَنَا ، وَخَيْرٌ لَهُمْ ، قَالَ : مَا شَبِعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ مُتَوَالِيَةٍ حَتَّى لَحِقَ بِاللَّهِ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - . رَوَاهُ الطَّبَرَانِيُّ ، وَفِيهِ رَاوٍ لَمْ يُسَمَّ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ وُثِّقُوا .
A man from the tribe of Abs narrates: I was walking with Sayyiduna Salman al-Farisi (may Allah be pleased with him) along the bank of the river Tigris. He said: O man of Banu Abs! Get down and drink! I drank. He said: How much has your drinking reduced (the water of) the Tigris? I said: It has hardly reduced it at all. He said: Knowledge is likewise; it is taken from, but it does not diminish. Then he said: Mount! Then we passed by heaps of wheat and barley, and he said: Do you think that this has been opened up for us, while life was made hard for the Companions of Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), because our situation is better and theirs was bad? I replied: I do not know. He said: But I know: our situation is bad and theirs was better. Then he said: "The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) never ate his fill for three consecutive days until he went into the presence of Allah Almighty."
