تَابِعُ مُسْنَدِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ
Continuation of the Musnad of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him)
Musnad Abi Ya'la 6674 — I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ قُدَامَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ سُفْيَانَ يَقُولُ: حدثنا إسماعيل عن قيس قال سمعت أبا هريرة يقول سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ: «وَاللَّهِ لَأَنْ يَأْخُذَ أَحَدُكُمْ حَبْلًا فَيَحْتَطِبَ وَيَحْمِلُهُ عَلَى ظَهْرِهِ فَيَأْكُلُ وَيَتَصَدَّقُ، خَيْرٌ لَهُ مِنْ أَنْ يَأْتِيَ رَجُلًا قَدْ أَغْنَاهُ اللَّهُ مِنْ فَضْلِهِ يَسْأَلُهُ أَعْطَاهُ أَوْ مَنَعَهُ»
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "By Allah! That one of you should take a rope, gather firewood, carry it on his back, and then (from that lawful earning) eat himself and also give in charity, is far better for him than going to a man whom Allah has made rich from His bounty and stretching out his hand to ask him, whether he then gives him something or refuses him."
