كلام عبادة بن الصامت ﵁
The words of Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37541 — The words of Ubadah bin al-Samit
٣٧٥٤١ - حدثنا (يعلى) (١) بن عبيد عن الأعمش عن عمارة (٢) بن حمزة شهر بن حوشب قال: جاء رجل إلى عبادة بن الصامت فقال: رجل يصلي يبتغي وجه اللَّه ويحب أن يحمد، قال: ليس بشيء، إن اللَّه (٣) يقول: أنا خير شريك، فمن كان له معي شريك فهو (له) (٤) كله لا حاجة لي فيه (٥).
It is narrated from Shahr bin Hawshab that he said: A man came to Sayyiduna Ubadah bin al-Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) and said: A man prays seeking the pleasure of Allah and also likes to be praised. He said: This deed is nothing (of any use). Allah has declared: I am the best of partners. Whoever has a share with Me in something, all of it belongs to that partner. I have no need of it.
