Musnad Abi Ya'la 737 — his father, Sayyiduna Sa'd, was among
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّوْرَقِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْحَنَفِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا بُكَيْرُ بْنُ مِسْمَارٍ ، عَنْ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ ، أَنَّ أَبَاهُ سَعْدًا كَانَ فِي إِبِلٍ لَهُ وَغَنَمٍ ، فَجَاءَهُ ابْنُهُ عُمَرُ ، فَلَمَّا رَآهُ قَالَ : أَعُوذُ بِاللهِ مِنْ شَرِّ هَذَا الرَّاكِبِ ، فَلَمَّا انْتَهَى إِلَيْهِ قَالَ : أَرَضِيتَ أَنْ تَكُونَ أَعْرَابِيًّا فِي إِبِلِكَ وَغَنَمِكَ ، وَالنَّاسُ بِالْمَدِينَةِ يَتَنَازَعُونَ الْمُلْكَ ؟ قَالَ : فَضَرَبَ صَدْرَهُ بِيَدِهِ ، وَقَالَ : يَا بُنَيَّ اسْكُتْ ، فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : إِنَّ اللهَ يُحِبُّ الْعَبْدَ التَّقِيَّ الْغَنِيَّ الْخَفِيَّ .
Amir bin Sa'd (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that his father, Sayyiduna Sa'd (may Allah be pleased with him), was among his camels and goats when his son Umar came to him. When he saw him, he said: "I seek refuge with Allah from the evil of this rider." When he reached him, he said: "Are you content to live as a Bedouin among your camels and goats while the people in Madinah are disputing over rule?" So he struck him on his chest with his hand and said: "My son! Be quiet, for I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: 'Indeed, Allah Almighty loves the servant who is God-fearing, self-sufficient (in heart) and inconspicuous.'"
