وَقَالَ الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، ثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ ، ثَنَا أَيُّوبُ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَرِيرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ : جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَتَقَاضَاهُ تَمْرًا ، فَاسْتَنْظَرَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَبَى أَنْ يُنْظِرَهُ ، فَانْتَهَرَهُ أَصْحَابُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ : أُحَرِّجُ بِهِ عَلَيْكَ أَنْ أَخْرُجَ مِنَ الْمَدِينَةِ وَأَنَا أَطْلُبُكَ مِنْهُ بِشَيْءٍ ، فَإِنِّي وَاللهِ لَا أَرْجِعُ إِلَى أَرْضِي حَتَّى يُنْهَبَ مِنْهَا أَكْثَرُ مِمَّا أَطْلُبُ مِنْكَ . فَأَرْسَلَ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَى امْرَأَةٍ مِنْ بَنِي سُلَيْمٍ يُقَالُ لَهَا : خَوْلَةُ يَسْتَسْلِفُهَا تَمْرًا ، فَأَرْسَلَتْ إِلَيْهِ بِتَمْرٍ فَقَالَتْ : إِنْ أَرَدْتَ مِنْ هَذَا فَعِنْدَنَا مِنْهُ مَا أَرَدْتُمْ قَالَ : " تُرِيدُ مِنْ هَذَا " ؟ قَالَ : نَعَمِ " اذْهَبْ فَاكْتَلْ وَاسْتَوْفِهِ " ثُمَّ قَالَ : " هُوَ كَانَ أَحْوَجَ إِلَى نُصْرَتِكُمْ مِنِّي ، وَأَنَا إِلَى أَنْ تَأْمُرُونِي بِأَدَاءِ أَمَانَتِي أَحْوَجُ " ، وَقَالَ : " إِنَّ اللهَ تَعَالَى لَا يُقَدِّسُ أُمَّةً لَا تَنْصُرُ ضَعِيفَهَا " ، أَوْ قَالَ : " لَا تُقَوِّي ضَعِيفَهَا " .
It is narrated from Abu Zur'ah bin Amr bin Jarir (may Allah have mercy on him) that a man came into the noble presence of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and began demanding from him (peace and blessings be upon him) repayment of his debt of dates. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked him for some respite, but he flatly refused to give respite. At this the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (may Allah be pleased with them) scolded and rebuked him, so he said: "I make it a burden upon you that I should leave Madinah in a state in which I am still seeking my right from you. By Allah! I will not return to my land until more is plundered from it than what I am demanding from you." So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) sent word to a woman of Banu Sulaym called Khawlah in order to borrow dates from her. She sent dates to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and sent word: If you like these, we have as much of them as you wish. He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked that man: "Do you want to take these dates?" He said: Yes. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Go, measure it and take your full right." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him), addressing the Companions, said: "This man was more in need of your help and support (in obtaining his right) than I, and I was more in need of your urging me to fulfil my trust." And he further said: "Indeed, Allah Almighty never purifies and elevates a nation that does not help its weak," or he said: "that does not make its weak strong (by securing his right)."
