Musnad Abi Ya'la 3408 — the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to a gathering
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي الرَّبِيعِ السَّمَّانُ ، حَدَّثَنَا رُشَيْدٌ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا ثَابِتٌ ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ ، قَالَ : وَقَفَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى مَجْلِسِ بَنِي سَلِمَةَ فَقَالَ : يَا بَنِي سَلِمَةَ ، مَا الرَّقُوبُ فِيكُمْ ؟ قَالُوا : الَّذِي لَا وَلَدَ لَهُ ، قَالَ : بَلْ هُوَ الَّذِي لَا فَرَطَ لَهُ ، قَالَ : مَا الْمُعْدِمُ فِيكُمْ ؟ قَالُوا : الَّذِي لَا مَالَ لَهُ ، قَالَ : بَلْ هُوَ الَّذِي يَقْدَمُ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ عِنْدَ اللهِ خَيْرٌ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came to a gathering of Banu Salimah and asked: "O Banu Salimah! Whom do you consider the 'raqub' (childless)?" They said: The one who has no children. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Rather, it is the one who has no child who has gone ahead of him (by dying before him, so that it becomes a source of reward for him)." Then he (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Whom do you consider destitute?" They said: The one who has no wealth. He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "No, rather the (true) destitute is the one who comes (before Allah) and has no good with Allah."
