Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 37663 — The words of Abu Razin

It is narrated from Abdullah bin Rabi'ah that he said: Sayyiduna Utbah bin Farqad (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Abdullah bin Rabi'ah: "O Abdullah, will you not help me with your nephew?" He said: "What help is that?" He said: "That he help me in the work I am engaged in." So Abdullah said to him: "O Amr, obey your father." The narrator said: Then he looked at Mi'dad, who was also sitting there, and he said: "Do not obey him, and prostrate and draw near" [Al-Alaq: 19]. The narrator said: At this Amr said: "O my father, I am only a slave working to free his neck." The narrator said: At this Utbah wept and said: "O my son, I love you with two loves: a love for the sake of Allah, and the love of a father for his son." The narrator said: Then Amr said: "O my father, you brought me wealth amounting to seventy thousand. If you are asking me about that wealth, here it is; take it. Otherwise, leave me to spend it." Utbah said to him: "Spend it." The narrator said: Then he spent it in such a way that not a single dirham of it remained.
