Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 7767 — when the Prophet ﷺ was asked for something
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ، نَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، نَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عَنْبَسَةَ ، ثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ الْكُوفِيُّ ، عَنْ أَبِي الْعَلَاءِ الْخَفَّافِ ، عَنِ الْمِنْهَالِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو ، عَنْ حَبَّةَ الْعُرَنِيِّ ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ : كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذَا سُئِلَ شَيْئًا فَأَرَادَ أَنْ يَفْعَلَهُ قَالَ : I " نَعَمْ I " ، وَإِذَا أَرَادَ أَنْ لَا يَفْعَلَ سَكَتَ ، وَكَانَ لَا يَقُولُ لِشَيْءٍ : لَا ، فَأَتَاهُ أَعْرَابِيٌّ ، فَسَأَلَهُ ، فَسَكَتَ ، ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ فَسَكَتَ ، ثُمَّ سَأَلَهُ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَهَيْئَةِ الْمُنْتَهِرِ : I " سَلْ مَا شِئْتَ يَا أَعْرَابِيُّ I " ، فَغَبِطْنَاهُ ، فَقُلْنَا : الْآنَ يَسْأَلُ الْجَنَّةَ ، فَقَالَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ : أَسْأَلُكَ رَاحِلَةً ، فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : I " لَكَ ذَاكَ I " ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : I " سَلْ I " ، قَالَ : أَسْأَلُكَ زَادًا ، قَالَ : I " وَلَكَ ذَاكَ I " ، قَالَ : فَتَعَجَّبْنَا مِنْ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : كَمْ بَيْنَ مَسْأَلَةِ الْأَعْرَابِيِّ وَعَجُوزِ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ .
ثُمَّ قَالَ : I " إِنَّ مُوسَى لَمَّا أُمِرَ أَنْ يَقْطَعَ الْبَحْرَ فَانْتَهَى إِلَيْهِ ، فَضُرِبَتْ وُجُوهُ الدَّوَابِّ ، فَرَجَعَتْ ، فَقَالَ مُوسَى : مَا لِي يَا رَبِّ ، قَالَ لَهُ : إِنَّكَ عِنْدَ قَبْرِ يُوسُفَ ، فَاحْتَمِلْ عِظَامَهُ مَعَكَ ، وَقَدِ اسْتَوَى الْقَبْرُ بِالْأَرْضِ ، فَجَعَلَ مُوسَى لَا يَدْرِي أَيْنَ هُوَ ، قَالُوا : إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ مِنْكُمْ يَعْلَمُ أَيْنَ هُوَ ، فَعَجُوزُ بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ لَعَلَّهَا تَعْلَمُ أَيْنَ هُوَ ، فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَيْهَا مُوسَى عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ، قَالَ : هَلْ تَعْلَمِينَ أَيْنَ قَبْرُ يُوسُفَ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ ؟ قَالَتْ : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : فَدُلِّينِي عَلَيْهِ ، قَالَتْ : لَا وَاللهِ حَتَّى تُعْطِيَنِي مَا أَسْأَلُكَ ، قَالَ : ذَاكَ لَكِ ، قَالَتْ : فَإِنِّي أَسْأَلُكَ أَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَكَ فِي الدَّرَجَةِ الَّتِي تَكُونُ فِيهَا فِي الْجَنَّةِ . قَالَ : سَلِي الْجَنَّةَ ، قَالَتْ : لَا وَاللهِ أَنْ أَكُونَ مَعَكَ ، فَجَعَلَ مُوسَى يُرَادُّهَا ، فَأَوْحَى اللهُ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى إِلَيْهِ : أَنْ أَعْطِهَا ذَلِكَ ، فَإِنَّهُ لَا يَنْقُصُكَ شَيْئًا ، فَأَعْطَاهَا وَدَلَّتْهُ عَلَى الْقَبْرِ ، فَأَخْرَجَ الْعِظَامَ وَجَاوَزَ الْبَحْرَ I " .
I " لَا يُرْوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - إِلَّا بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ ، تَفَرَّدَ بِهِ : يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ الْقُلُوسِيُّ I " .

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked for something and he (peace and blessings be upon him) intended to give it, he would say "Yes"; and if he intended not to give it, he would remain silent; and he (peace and blessings be upon him) would never say "No" to anything. A Bedouin came to him (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked, but he (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent; he asked again, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) remained silent; then he asked once more, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him in a manner like one rebuking: "O Bedouin, ask for whatever you wish." We envied him and said: Now he will ask for Paradise. The Bedouin said: I ask you for a riding mount. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: "You shall have it." Then he said: "Ask (more)." He said: I ask you for provisions for the journey. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "You shall have that too." The narrator said: We were amazed at that, so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "How great is the difference between the request of this Bedouin and (the request of) the old woman of the Children of Israel!"
Then he said: "When Musa (peace be upon him) was commanded to cross the sea and he reached its shore, the faces of the animals were struck and they turned back. Musa (peace be upon him) said: 'O my Lord, what is the matter with me?' Allah said: 'You are at the grave of Yusuf (peace be upon him); take his bones with you.' The grave had become level with the ground, so Musa (peace be upon him) could not tell where it was. The people said: 'If anyone among you knows where it is, then perhaps the old woman of the Children of Israel knows where it is.' So Musa (peace be upon him) sent for her and asked: 'Do you know where the grave of Yusuf (peace be upon him) is?' She said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then show me where it is.' She said: 'No, by Allah, not until you give me what I ask of you.' He said: 'You shall have it.' She said: 'I ask of you that I be with you in Paradise in the same rank in which you will be.' He said: 'Ask for Paradise.' She said: 'No, by Allah, (I want only) to be with you.' Musa (peace be upon him) began to put her off and reason with her again and again, so Allah, the Blessed and Exalted, revealed to him: 'Give her that, for it will not reduce anything of yours.' So he granted it to her, and she showed him the grave; then he took out the bones and crossed the sea."
Imam al-Tabarani (may Allah have mercy on him) said: "This hadith is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) only with this chain, and Ya'qub bin Ishaq al-Qulusi (may Allah have mercy on him) is alone in narrating it."
