Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37649 — The words of Midad

It is narrated from al-Shaybani that he said: Mi'dad had a brother. The narrator said: He would come to the market, buy and sell, and spend on his own family and on Mi'dad's family. The narrator said: Mi'dad used to say: "He is better than I am. We are among his dependents; he spends on us."
