Al-Matalib al-'Aliyah 3158 — The life of the Salaf

وَقَالَ عَبْدٌ : حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَنَا أَبُو الْعَطُوفِ الْجَرَّاحُ بْنُ مِنْهَالٍ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ : خَرَجْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى دَخَلْنَا فِي بَعْضِ حِيطَانِ الْأَنْصَارِ ، فَجَعَلْنَا نَلْتَقِطُ مِنَ التَّمْرِ وَنَأْكُلُ ، فَقَالَ لِي : " يَا ابْنَ عُمَرَ مَا لَكَ لَا تَأْكُلُ ؟ " فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ لَا أَشْتَهِيهِ . قَالَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " لَكِنِّي أَشْتَهِيهِ وَهَذِهِ صُبْحُ رَابِعَةٍ مُنْذُ لَمْ أَذُقْ طَعَامًا وَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ ، وَلَوْ شِئْتُ دَعَوْتُ رَبِّي فَأَعْطَانِي مِثْلَ مُلْكِ كِسْرَى وَقَيْصَرَ ، فَكَيْفَ بِكَ يَا ابْنَ عُمَرَ إِذَا بَقِيتَ فِي قَوْمٍ يُخَبِّئُونَ رِزْقَ سَنَةٍ وَيَضْعُفُ الْيَقِينُ ؟ " فَوَاللهِ مَا بَرِحْنَا وَلَا ذَهَبْنَا حَتَّى نَزَلَتْ : وَكَأَيِّنْ مِنْ دَابَّةٍ لا تَحْمِلُ رِزْقَهَا اللهُ يَرْزُقُهَا وَإِيَّاكُمْ وَهُوَ السَّمِيعُ الْعَلِيمُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " إِنَّ اللهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَمْ يَأْمُرْنِي بِكَنْزِ الدُّنْيَا وَلَا اتِّبَاعِ الشَّهَوَاتِ ، فَمَنْ كَنَزَهَا يُرِيدُ بِهَا حَيَاةً بَاقِيَةً ، فَإِنَّ الْحَيَاةَ بِيَدِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، أَلَا وَإِنِّي لَا أَكْنِزُ دِينَارًا وَلَا دِرْهَمًا وَلَا أُخَبِّئُ رِزْقًا لِغَدٍ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: I went out with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) until we entered one of the gardens of the Ansar, and we began picking dates and eating them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked me: "O Ibn Umar! What is the matter with you that you are not eating?" I said: O Messenger of Allah! I have no appetite for them. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "But I have an appetite for them, and this is the fourth morning on which I have not tasted a single morsel of food, nor have I found any. Had I wished, I would have supplicated to my Lord and He would have given me wealth like the kingdom of Chosroes and Caesar. O Ibn Umar! How will you be when you remain among people who will store and hide a whole year's provision and whose certainty and reliance upon Allah will become weak?" Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: By Allah! We had not yet moved from our place nor gone anywhere when this verse was revealed: "And how many a creature does not carry its own provision! Allah provides for it and for you, and He is the All-Hearing, the All-Knowing." [Surah al-Ankabut: 60] Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Indeed, Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, has not commanded me to amass the wealth of this world nor to follow desires. So whoever amasses the wealth of the world intending that he will thereby obtain everlasting life, let him know that life is only in the hand of Allah, the Mighty and Majestic. Behold! I neither amass any dinar nor any dirham, nor do I hide away any provision for tomorrow."
The chain of this hadith contains Abu al-Atuf al-Jarrah bin Minhal, who is matruk al-hadith (abandoned in hadith) and a da'if (weak) narrator; Imam al-Bayhaqi recorded this narration in Shu'ab al-Iman.
